Gary Smith Poet Rhyme

The Fate of a Comet

It sped through the night like a stone skims a pond,

Out to the stars, and what lies beyond.

Where will it go, what will it see,

Amongst nebulous giants, and strange galaxies.

Will it find life, has our earth got a twin,

Will it find the answers, how did we begin.

Encountering mysteries we'll never know,

Oh speeding traveller, I envy you so.

To explore the universe, the fate of a comet, 

Given the chance, I'd ride upon it.
