Asteroid Belts

9/10/16


Polar ice caps continue to melt
Below asteroid belts
And above beds of kelp

Materials being smelt
Hyped up and stocked across the shelf

Better focus on your health
As much as, if not more than you do with wealth

Keep swimming, you don't have to be as good as Phelps
Near and far from kelt
And areas inhabited by elk
As well as crops, few of which may have been spelt

Close and beyond where people dwelt
Many toiled and prayed while they knelt

With all the hands I was dealt
Always tried to handle them myself
Because I didn't like to ask for help
From anyone else

Finally saw her, she was wearing felt
And her intentions were heartfelt/ And a traditional dress considered Welsh
