2/22/2026 for Ode To The Cosmos - Greetings From Earth Poetry Contest sponsored by John Anderson
If this finds you millions of light years out, you'll see a comet race toward our earth. Know our planet nearly died from that clout, but experienced glorious rebirth. By and by, a civilization grew - one of beauty and scientific truth, but the knowledge with which we were bestowed (e equals mc squared, indeed was true) slew our Shakespeare's and Mozart's world in youth. Don't let your bombs or CO2 explode.
