Premium Member Bursting Bellies

   Balloons fill with helium, soar in the sky

   What strange gases burst politicians’ bellies

     ~ Perhaps Saturn will see them fly by

Premium Member Alliteration -Sleek Steel Ships

Steady and stealth are
NASA’s sleek steel ships,
their bright brazen tail lights
trail baby blue skies 
as they climb cliffs of rugged cloud banks

Space Traveller

my line of work
is space travel
those distances between stars
that's me
arranging all the loungers
around the hyper-pool
although
I'm only filling in

Premium Member Done Gone Too Far

I sailed by Mercury, Venus and Mars
Past Neptune, Pluto and assorted stars
   The virus everywhere
   It's just too much to bear
I still can't find one single open bar

Question

For those who want to travel throughout the sparkling magic of space, 
to see meteors crashing on planets,
Icy comets passing by and dead moons revolving…
Just where do you think you are now?


Premium Member Double Feature

Mars is such a long way off
  Flying there could be quite tough
Let's set up intermediate stations
  On each one take long vacations

If we ever get to Mars, then good
  And if not ~ Well, that's Hollywood!

Premium Member Mars Or Bust

I'm joining Elon Musk
    It's Mars or bust
  If we don't make it
    we become space dust 

  But no way that's in the cards
    We'll get there, we try hard
  As for the trip back ~
    Er, perhaps you've a tip?

Take a Train

take a train
seek a station
sense the location
nevermind the destination

thus the landscape is just a mindscape;
a vastness of space, a great unknown
we built for each other,
a wall of falling - a distance of stasis.

Springtime

Again, it is Spring
in the garden outside my flat -
flowers forcing colours
above ground,
remind me that in nature,
there still remains
a world of mystery

despite marvellous inventions
space travel
and ndw technology.

What Might Have Been

One Hundred Million years ago
A spaceship came to land

And plant the seed upon this earth
that one day would be man

From far across the Heavens
an eternity in space

The fertilized our gardens
soon to be the Human race.....

The E T

Zena hailed from the Zeta Reticula star system and she
was bored with the military’s handling of her.  Day after day of
interrogations and discussions for weapons or space travel.

Galactic Light Codes

Are like passports or keys to open doorways
to travel the stars, quasars, galaxies and white and black holes

From worlds within us
from worlds outside us
and inner and outer dimensions

That were never seen
or heard of or experienced before time

Premium Member Man Moves On

Perpetually
stars intermingle
with the universe
creation deathless
like the wide blue sea.

Cosmic order
continuous
in harmony
alone with God

The prophet
predicts man
in ‘Star ships’

invades
God’s own

Help!

Premium Member Alien Transportation

He walked around the showroom
       the cars were shining bright
    He told the nearest salesman
       I do not see a bike

    They thought he meant motorcycles
      instead of brand-new cars
    The little green man got offended
      so he pedaled on back to Mars

Let's ride good times

Exposing rays from leaves, dense forest
Over and above with idle flow, riverine raft
None, still numerous belongs my closest
Melodies out the tropical denses,
Spreading vibes in everyone's hymn,
Fueling the bonfire with all poor instances,
Join all and let's ride good times.

Premium Member Venture Forth

Recover lost horizons
  Sail beyond Outer Space
Revive the imagination
  Of a faith-starved race

Dive deep into oceans
  Unexplored, Inner Space
Where waters surge majestic
  Midst moments of grace

Premium Member Going To the Moon

I have no desire of going to the moon. Never will you see me there anytime soon. It's a very desolate place without any air. Spacecraft will cost too much to get there. Don't expect me to be visiting such a place. To me, it's just a big rock orbiting in space. Inspired by another member's poem

Premium Member Bring the Spf 1000

Elon’s SpaceX will be such a boon,
as we jet to the far reaches soon.
This coil won’t contain us;
get a tan on Uranus,
ski the slopes on Pluto by moon.

Now it’s not that I mean to be crass,
but I mustn’t let one detail pass.
Don’t be caught unawares
by the spike solar flares;
those waivers don’t cover your ass.

Space travel 

When I can't sleep 
in the night
I close my eyes 
see a myriad 
of stars
some of them are red
but mostly blue
I continue my odyssey
through the galaxy
when stars  
are a rarity
and further away
a wall of nothing
a space that has
no ending 
a fear of a vacuum
ghostly immobility
where nothing matters
never did

A Chance

a chance to meet
if ever there is
a glimpse o sweet
away from this

a chance; a pass
a second to beat
of once was; was
would be a treat

summing up the words
i felt... i feel.?
how she once stirred
what i could not reveal...

but then im done
aint got no might...
her face... a smile upon.
i have no right.
