A Martian's Fantasy

The fantasy of a Martian like me is to explore Earth's vast blue seas to fraternize with dolphins and whales to return to Mars with many a tale of octopus, squid, stingrays and eels the intense water pressure one feels perhaps experience rapture of the deep ~ long as my fifteen heads get their beauty sleep

This is clever, your poetry always carries significant messages and I feel both your desperation and hopelessness, but we have to stay sane and laugh a little sometimes, this poem is all about, coping and living and that tomorrow is another day, enjoyed this poem and had a giggle. Hugs and blessings. Jennifer.

(chuckling) Gosh, I don't think I could cope with a being of fifteen heads, gw. I have enough trouble keeping my one head straight!

This is too cute Gershon. Reminds me of the little Martian and his dog that visited Earth in the Looney Toons I used to watch as a kid. Bugs Bunny used to give him quite the run around. A real fun read. God Bless, JB
