Premium Member Admiring Heavenly Bodies

Sensing the amazing night sky
Always gets me pondering why.
Each part of our solar system;
Taking stock so I don’t miss them.
Planets such as Venus and Mars
Appear larger than background stars.
With telescope, I more attune
To Jupiter’s many a moon.

I note the absence of moon on Earth;
Its presence yields stargazing dearth.
Sometimes on a very clear night,
I spot a man-made satellite,
Or a comet or shooting star;
In relative terms, not that far.
I, by the zoom telescope brings,
See Saturn and its frozen rings.

Beyond sun, moon, and planets nine,
To take in more wonders, I pine.
To see stars in their locations;
Part of galactic formations.
Constellations—people did try
To find pictures in the night sky.
Like Orion the Hunter’s bow,
Or Southern Cross in latitudes low.

Outer stars of Big Dipper’s bowl,
Merak and Dubhe play a role;
Point to Polaris, the north star,
On Little Dipper’s handle far.
Little Dipper—part of Small Bear;
Great Bear—Big Dipper is a share.
Cassiopeia’s W,
Its five stars are easy to view.

Galaxies made of many stars,
Like the Milky Way, which is ours.
Million-plus galaxies to see,
Andromeda and LMC,
Whirlpool, Tadpole, more it is said,
Like NGC Thirteen Hundred [1300];
Cigar, Pinwheel, Sombrero, too;
More listed in Galaxy Zoo.

Individual stars appear
Though from us many a light-year.
Sirius, with “Dog Star” nickname,
Brightest star in sky is its fame.
Alpha Centauri—three stars tight,
In night sky is the third most bright.
Red supergiant Betelgeuse,
Celestial star version of Zeus?

Other heavenly bodies’ roles,
Include nebula clouds, black holes.
Though white dwarf stars are near their end,
Heat energy they still expend.
Much unknown about universe;
Big Bang’s energy does disperse?
Novas, pulsars, neutron stars, and more;
There’s still a lot left to explore.

For as long as man’s been around,
He has gazed upward from the ground.
To behold that beyond his home,
Pushed by innate desire to roam?
Traveling space for 60 years,
In man’s thoughts, and at times, his fears.
On each clear night, some stop and stare,
To learn more about what’s out there.

Premium Member Fight For Pandora

The mining company
Has confirmed of a place
Its in the Alpha Centauri
Deep out into space

Their provisional scouts
Miners and Geologists
Declare seams of Unobtanium
In a jungle greened mist

Expedition and workforce
With their military men
Set of to this planet
To mine this precious gem

The day arrives
As their equipment scores
Months now having passed
Leaving incredible sores

Their expansion of greed
On this planet so green
Turns the indigenous Na'vi
Against man and machine

With their ingenious science
Of Na'vi-human hybrid
They create avatars
Entering their mental state grid

Infiltrating this species
To gain them on their side
So that mans greed can prosper
Whilst another culture slides

The inevitability of conflict
Indigenous against modern man
Bows and arrows against bullets
The fighting has just began

This species on this far distant planet
Who are in tune with their natures surrounds
Watch on in horror as mans flying machines
Bring their Hometree to the ground

This stirs up this indigenous nation
To rise up against mans greed
With their harmony with nature
Unites all the planets breeds

The might of modern man
Has met their match this day
And sent them back where they came from
For once a planet saved from decay



"I watched Avatar today and i was blown away with the colours, graphics and
 the sheer imagination along with the messages of how we treat others"

Will you believe if only humans exist?
I'm sure everyone has wondered.
Our solar system is in a difficult stage.
It has several different types of stars. 
Planets, the same as our planetary systems,
There is no life in any of those worlds.
Likewise, it may be over humble.
Either it's too hot or too cold.
The Earth is just right, green, and calm.
We must maintain and replenish the Earth.
Are there other worlds the same as Earth?
Do life forms such as us live them?
What project for dealing with them? 
In the Goldilocks world, that life is likely.
Our own Goldilocks planet is just right.
No wonder it's been a game of lowlifes.
We're living on the moon on one foot.
We're off to space in an Earthly pose.
We should never play with a telescope.
Waiting at the ending of a taut rope.
Our preferred zone is the "Goldilocks zone."
Alpha Centauri is ideal for Earth-like stars.
Alpha Centauri has one planet Earth-sized.
Red dwarf stars harm life around there.
A fresh Proxima B is four light-years away.
75 thousand years to arrive on the Voyager.
Proxima Centauri would take 215 million years.
Please don't follow in our footsteps, next generation.
Have you finally resolved the issue?
It must exist, and you'll find it.
Faith and hope bind us together.
The mainstay of our efforts has shifted to space.
Until we reach the red planet Mars, 
How long can you last with no food or clean air?
Water first, then stay there.
Whatever funds we throw, it's never enough.
All would be lost if this Earth dried up.
We must feel the urge to analyze Goldilocks.

Premium Member Autumn Stars

Autumn Stars

Autumn stars mature in the swirling Milky Way, 
Umber, gold and fire of astral leaves
Twirling in the gradual autumnal transition sway
Under falling aster stars born of grace
Missing now the summer song of swan and lyre lays - 
New the frosty Sculptor to crisp nights.

Stellar autumn artistry gathers fruits from galaxy fields
Then rides on Pegasus across the Centauri season
Abundant harvest of astral constellations gleaned yields 
Ripening in celestial orchards of southern autumn’s hiatus -
Soul and Heart nebula bouquets seed Orion revealed.

Premium Member Dancing In Pandora

I live in  a faraway densely forested habitable moon,
orbiting in the central Alpha Centauri star system.
I am a blue-skinned sapient humanoid,
and a pride of Omaticaya clan in paradise of Pandora.

I own the beauty of  precious gem, a diamonds that glow.
Glistens like a crystal water softly flowing in  a stream.
I love to ride in a back of Toruk, my flying dragon friend,
While embracing the love of the man, my avatar king.

The nature is where my heart beats...
I love the scent of  flowers bloom in the field.
And enthralled my emotion with the song of  birds.
Then make love with the avatar in the midst of forest.

In the land of Pandora, I cherish the love that I've found.
The gift of goddess Eywa, our life has sustained.
Value every single tears that these eyes held,
Then give all my strength to defend the beauty of our place.

This is where I  found the man who changed my world.
I treasure every moment that our eyes met.
With his hands I feel secured,his touch made me stronger .
 His lips I surrendered all the love I can share.

Nature and love , an eternal power from within.
This world has a lot of precious things to offer.
Come to me, let us dance in the psalm of breeze.
And cherish this divine freedom from within.

Superman

STANZA ONE
He had the heart of a lion
And the strength of a bear
Ripping his enemies apart
He would crush and tear
Man of steel
With charm and grace
No one can dare confront him
Or look at his face
He is all over the world
And all over the place
He stands on the silver clouds
And drift through the winds
The colour of his skin matters less
As long as he is bless
By God
Samson! David or my Mohammed Ali
Roosevelt or Lincoln
Whatever name you may be
Oh! Superman
He has come to rescue us from harm
I love the way he looks
His carriage and charm
You remind of Horatio Nelson
The way you fight with one arm
And he looks above the horizon like a demigod
His composure was calm and undisturbed
Oh! Superman
Messenger of God
He prays hard to the Almighty and serves the Lord
Oh Superman!
The strongest man I have ever seen
A man  a thousand men can not win
He had the strength of Samson 
And the wisdom of Solomon
He is the king of us all
But he will not acknowledge
that title
Firm like Stalin
When it is time to take a decision
Never look back
Takes no permission
The true hero of the revolution
Was Leon Trosky
Washington of our time
Deliver us from the Great Evil
No matter where it may be
Oh Superman! Oh Superman! Oh Superman!
He lives in me
I am determine to sacrifice my life 
For the sake others
So that all men will be free
And stand for the rights of men
Where ever they may be
I will seek them in the lions den
And send evil doers to the past
With one blast
And that will be their last

STANZA TWO
He had the heart of a lion
And the strength of a bear
Ripping his enemies apart
He would crush and tear
Man of steel
With charm and grace
No one can dare confront him
Or look into at his face
Samson! David or my Mohammed Ali
Roosevelt or Lincoln
Whatever name you may be
Oh! Superman
When he was born an old witch 
Saw a prophecy
That a king is coming soon
Because the Moon was still shining even at afternoon
And the sun was still sleeping in his lazy crib
To live a promising life of adventure
Little did his parents know 
That he was a man as a child 
Before he would grow
And his glory would glow
Like the Alpha Centauri
Oh Superman!
From dusk to dawn
He lays awake
And would take 
Any challenge that comes his way
And would live his life like every other day
And he would live his life for the sake of others
Defender of justice and freedom
Thinks like an old sage
Because he has wisdom

Premium Member Harvest of Stars

Harvest of Stars

Look up!
Sparkling autumn stars above swirl in the Milky Way
Glittering umber, gold and fire of astral leaves
Streak through star dust of light years
Twirling in the gradual autumnal transition sway
Under falling aster stars born of spring lion’s light
Missing now the summer song of swan and lyre
New the frosty Sculptor to crisp nights.

Look up!
From galaxy fields fiery stellar artistry gathers fruit -
Silhouettes with cosmic bits like crystal dew -
Ripening in celestial orchards, the southern autumn’s hiatus,
Gleaned in abundant harvests of astral constellations
Ride twinkling Pegasus across the Centauri season
When Soul and Heart nebula nosegays seed the hunter’s stars
Where silence echoes ebony implosions.

Premium Member The Nearest Exoplanet

The search goes on
to discover at last
that we are not alone..
Yet others wait
for the discovery
that we are alone..
Alone in knowing
that Awareness knows 
itself Alone
and that we
and this exoplanet
color our Awareness
as we remain Alone...


Closest Exoplanet To Earth -- August 2016
On Aug 24 2016, the European Southern Observatory announced the confirmation of the closest exoplanet to Earth. This illustration shows Proxima b, which orbits its parent star Proxima Centauri, the closest sun to Earth's sun. Proxima b lies within its sun's habitable zone, strongly suggesting the planet has liquid water on its surface.

Everything falls apart

It’s not a matter of perspective
It’s a law of Nature
It’s there in Alpha Centauri			
But it’s also perspective
How the dust feels as it dies
That will set you free		
But not free from the decay
Because decay is dust’s home		
Yet, our mandate is resistance
To swiffer away entropy
Get through another revolution	
With our core unscathed from dust
Though scores whittle us away	
Tempting us to hasten demise
Telling us entropy is inevitable	
Without wealth or possessions
To shield us from time’s vultures		
Resistance is humanity’s right
The dust that crosses borders
The undocumented laborers	
Making America great again and again
Flushed down the toilet			
When the cleaning is done
When things appear falling apart
Put back the pieces without hope
Of the grapes of wrath juiced	
But, it won’t be the same
It’ll fall apart again	
That’s the law of entropy
Say you’ll reconstruct 
Each drop placed lovingly
Or else it won’t hold from falling
We need just a couple to rebuild again
Give it atmosphere as Earth does		
And entropy will choke every hope
Give it gravity like Jupiter
And we’ll know seriousness
Lives are on the line	
Waiting for us to fall apart
So they can say
I told you so
Or you'll never hold
Tell them I’m not so	
Or a ewe to be held
I don’t fall apart
I am as you are
Not falling apart
But falling within
Back to you
Always whole
In the One
That never
Falls apart
