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
