Morgan Dempster Morgan

They called him Morgan Dempster Morgan
And he wore his name with pride
Though he didn’t have a heart 
Just selenium cells inside
And he took all his food
From the wind from the sun 
Gathered as he cruised 
In his ever constant run
To and from the asteroid belt
The edge of near deep space
Helping mankind win
Their on going race
To repair their damage
To their home Planet Earth 
Mining all the elements 
No longer any dearth
Shunting them surely to 
The growing colony base
Up there on the moon 
In near home space.
The ice caps re forming 
The ozone layer complete
And a growing healthier earth
Lay beneath mankind’s feet
Many lessons learned 
Among those not the least
The planet was to share with every 
Kind and species of bird and beast.
Gone all the ambitions of 
The Colonising of space
Until they had learned properly
To care for their earth base
Morgan Dempter Morgan 
Of the Android Space Fleet
Labouring with man to 
Make the job complete.
Though he didn’t have a heart 
Just selenium cells inside
They called him Morgan Dempster Morgan
And he wore his name with pride
