Blue Dot

We should not destroy this thing that keeps us alive This dot in the universe A place where we all can roam This place we all call our home We are delusional if we think we have a place On the grand scheme of things we are small Smaller than grains of sand almost nothing at all This blue dot in space is all we have for life So why do we quarrel, fight and cause strife This dot is all we know Nothing above us and nothing below A little piece of dust hanging in the heaven's A place where we work and play A place of war and peace In the vastness of space we are alone Yet we fail to help each other along the way This blue dot in the vast universe A place where we should not shed it to pieces This blue dot we call home This blue dot that we should cherish. 12/28/13

So true it's such a crime that some people din't care and are destroying it. It's our planet too. Money and greed comes before common sense and ethics. well done take care best wishes. Pete.

Wow, Great poem Phyllis. Such truth in this deeply expressed piece. We are a percentage of a bigger beauty, that is the universe, it should be respected. Enjoyable piece overall. Check out some of my poems, might find you like. Peace.
