Zanzibar Gem Poem by Allan Scott

Natures gift underneath the supernova
Marbled with morbid neglect but thrives
with photosynthesizing superiority
The Zanzibar Gem.

An emotionless soul living in this space
cursed to witness humanity's wreck-less parade
but stems with an earthly green
Growing slowly, but surely to one day be noticed
By The crushing deep Purple shade
illuminating the oceans loving grips
cosmic wisdom to count by the days
until it reunites with her sea salt lips
