Gaia sends her signals from deep within

tremors of neglect shaking her wounded body,

asking for help in so many ways

yet only drama compels attention

in these days of Narcissus.

She is not a mechanism for study

nor a faulty watch we can replace.

Is it possible the beauty she gives

is intended for us, to soften our hearts

and release our spring color?

Like Aladdin we possess a magic gift

to create from the wellspring of our hearts.

How would it be today if our one wish,

our one desire was for her?
