Chlorophyll
Sprouting green upon the land
Nature's breath, life's golden hand
Chlorophyll, the emerald queen
Ruling over all things evergreen
Bathed in sunlight, she begins to stir
Awakening from her slumber, pure and pure
Tiny molecules, dancing in glee
As they absorb the sun's energy
From the depths of soil and sea
To the highest branches of every tree
Chlorophyll spreads her vibrant hues
A symphony of greens, her glorious muse
She is the lifeblood of the Earth
Sustaining all creatures, from birth to birth
For without her, all would cease to be
Her magic, the very essence of energy
Through her process of photosynthesis
She creates the air we breathe, her masterpiece
With every exhale, we thank her grace
For filling our lungs with life's sacred embrace
In the forests, she creates a canopy
A sanctuary for creatures, wild and free
Her leaves, a shelter from the scorching sun
A home for birds, where their songs are sung
In gardens, she paints a floral scene
Her blooms, a rainbow, so serene
With every petal, she whispers a tale
Of life, and love, and all that entails
From the tiniest blade of grass
To the tallest oak, she makes her pass
Her touch, a kiss of purest green
A reminder of nature's wondrous scene
But Chlorophyll's realm is not just green
For in the fall, her colors are seen
As she bids farewell, with a final show
A blaze of reds, yellows, and oranges aglow
And in winter, when all seems dead
She lies dormant, within each thread
Awaiting the return of the sun
To once again, her life-giving work begun
Chlorophyll, the giver of life
The mother of all, in beauty rife
With each passing day, she grows stronger
Her power, an eternal wonder
She reminds us to appreciate
The beauty of nature, before it's too late
For she is a symbol of hope and grace
A reminder that life will always find its place
So let us bow to Chlorophyll
The goddess of green, our world's true thrill
For without her, we would not exist
Our lives forever blessed, by her chlorophyll kiss.
