Handled Right

1/14/16


Starlight gleaming
Just about each and every dark night and evening

Comets
Traveling faster than rockets
Above mineral deposits
And golden goblets


Black holes
Always trying to grab hold
Of any matter in reach, which is much more than a handful


Planets
In a void of space and pitch blackness
If it wasn't for the the sun, things couldn't live, do you understand this?
In a place so very galactic
It's just automatic
That it will turn and back flip
Sometimes being tragic
And others time being absolutley dynamic

Stars
Above farms and barns
Flashing brighter than any embers on cigars
If you want to make it far and live large
A path must be carved
Now why is there so much regard toward Mars
Never mind the answer is not that hard

Sattlelites
In constant orbit nearby, what I would call astral lights
And way above castle knights

Had to lead by example twice
During a substantial plight
So that things were handled right
