Telescope

View the planets and the stars See the beauty that is Mars, Look at the heavens in all its splendor Observe the galaxies it may render Distant stars in all their glory As the universe tells its story, Look at all of Saturn's rings, And the many moons Jupiter brings Distant galaxies all come into view You may catch a glimpse of Neptune too As you view the heavens from afar And catch the twinkles of a star ***

I grew up on an island in the pacific, and although we own no telescopes, still the beauty at night staring up in the night sky is absolutely beautiful. Your gem here just reminds me of that. Beautiful poem, Joseph.

Love this Joseph ! I have always gazed at the stars in wonder trying to make out all of the realms beyond . I used to sleep out in a tent with my younger sisters in our backyard and tell star gazing stories . Of course we had popcorn too ! All the best, Susan :)

I love looking at the heavens on a clear night, we have low levels of light pollution here so it can be quite spectacular just like your lovely lines Joseph:-) hugs Jan xx

Nice cosmos poem. Bought my wife a telescope for our anniversary last year. She actually requested it
