Humanity - Gravity - Newton's Law

Gravity makes things go down, to the ground like a funny clown. Missing the trash can, now on the floor plan. Gravity will always be around.

Thanks for your note. Glad you enjoyed my fun "Humanity - Gravity" write. It is Not our aim... I find gravity does Not always work. The story goes like this. I dropped something into the trash can "But" it did not go in. It went on the floor. OK!!! So where was down, "Gravity"??? I was Over the trash can. Gravity seemed to go to the side then down to the floor. Really??? Keep your feet on the ground as you write away..................
