Planets

Our bubble of life in this vast Universe
A planet so dear, Natures from birth
She really is all that we know
But we know there are others
As our telescopes show
 
Named after Mythical gods, from our Human past
But these names will be known as long as we last
These gas giants and the terrestrials
Will become street talk in future juveniles
 
Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars
Lets visit the above in space like cars
Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus - Neptune
Before we go, lets stop off at the moon
 
The daddy of them all
The mother off all planets
The daughter has lost
The Sun has won it
 
How can it be, that this tremendous glow
Never strikes, or never goes slow
What will we do when she tires out
If you have the answer, please give me a shout
 
So remember, hey future when we pass them in cars
Their more important than us, they are the Stars
They are there for a reason, we just have not reached
But ancestors of our past, they did so preach.

Modern has lost touch with nature and the stars. I know that I don't know much but I love to go outside and see for a few minutes the heavenlies. Keep writing. Sara

Good morning(or whatever it is there) James, You and I think a lot alike on many topics. I have a strong belief in God and all of these things that He created. Do you? I have something that I need to publish about creation, but I want to do poems first to go through the process. It was nice to read your work, again this morning (morning for me). Take care. Always, Dane
