Nature's Sorceress

The woman in the emerald green dress
With mud skin and sunshine hair, plants daisies
Grass sways to the rthyme of her soft finesse
Mother's love blooms like wallpaper paisleys

Animals erupt from great happiness
Her angelic hum puts the world to sleep
A blanket of obsidian darkness
The rivers ripple from the tears she weeps

Her skin moistens the ground so lives can grow
Insects living inside her say "thank you."
Sadly, she burns alive from her great foe
She watches but can never find out who 

She continues to age, her skin cracking
Ocean eyes, for she never stops hacking.

    poor little Darla

    stuck in a war that was already fought

    a chandelier mine shattered

    for she was bought by a man

    a man who poured hope in her glass

    and killed her with doubt

    a man who toasted to happiness
  • Runaway

    Write a poem or story of any genre using the sentence "She looked at me with pleading eyes. That's when I ran away." At the end. Or create a piece of art/photo that represents this sentence.
  • Listen as Everest speaks

    Oh, why must my bitter cold soul devour my box of warmth, 
    my murderous, snow-white hair pointing north?
    The hikers that dare set foot on my icy ridges,
    they shall burn you like scolding, lava-like bridges.
