Notes About The Poem

Is There Life On Mars

Two Martians went on a blind date They agreed to meet at half eight Dressed as harlequins They looked like two twins Them meeting was just down to fate They sat down and ordered some beer Drank it up and were soon full of cheer They went to a star Which wasn’t too far And agreed Mars had no atmosphere They decided to visit our earth Most earthlings gave them a wide berth A photo was taken The image is makin’ A fortune - just think of its worth! Both settled in the US of A Martians friends came on a holiday Wearing such clever disguise They look like regular guys Area 51 is where they stay Subject Mars – Joe Maverick 07~05~15
