Listen to poem:
The Milky Way
Stark pine trees, the Milky Way
Is this God's gift to man
Or is it as some others think
Just eons of years span
The beauty and the colour
Makes you wonder how it could
Just be a work of nature
That the test of time has stood
Surely there are some things
We need not consider why
Just stand and gaze in wonder
As it illuminates the sky
Been there for a billion years
Some say many more
The beauty of the stars in there
Who bothers with the score
The pine trees in the image
Look bedraggled and quite bare
Nothing like the ones we have
When eating Christmas fare
