Man In the Moon

The man in the moon Looks down at our earth And bows his head in shame. Witnessing earths destruction By human hands A world led by the insane. He knows it wont be long Before our earth has gone Then who are we to blame. When the man in the moon Looks down for the last time At a world that died in vain.

John, this is wonderful....Borman and Anders and Lovell have gone around the moon...And charter trips in rocket ships may well be starting soon...We're reached a time in history that's called the lunar age...A frantic race to conquer space has now become the rage...Meawhile down here on Mother Earth things haven't changed one bit...We bomb and raid what we have made led on by some half wit...Man doesn't stop and try to save the treasures that are near...Let's lock the hatch on the booby hatch...The looney age is here!

Hi Duke, your rhyming reply was one of the best I've ever heard, our world is certainly out of control, lead by half wits who's vision is blurred.

Hello John Read, It is too bad that the Man In The Moon can not speak out to us to tell us how to fix it. Enjoy your day john. Nice to meet you.
