Ode To The Cosmos - Greeting From Earth

l Space goes on as far as one can see, dotted with diamond stars and planets. Space exploration have been going on, for over the last fifty years. Earthlings have been trying to find, life, little green men, knowledge in the cosmos.
ll It is now time for the universe to hear, hear about our story here on Earth. Earth is a planet that is not perfect, yet a great place to live. Many wonderful climates to choose from, with deep blue water to sail or swim in. A land with tall reaching mountains, to the vast deserts of hot sand. Our amazing food is different in each country, sample many to find the ones you like best. Then wash it down with one of our many drinks, from coffee to tea to beer to fresh juice or milk. Now that your tummy is full, find a shady beach spot for a nap. If you decide to go back home, go in peace from earth to your planet. Here is to September 5, 2027, the 50th anniversary of the Golden Record launch.
