WE ARE STANDING LOOKING AWAY FROM YOU BECAUSE
APPEARANCE IS ALIEN BIG EYES & TRIANGULAR HEAD !
MY NAME IS BROS & MY WIFE IS AOS
We were both born in HIEROS which is
A Large CITY of one hundred thousand
We restrict cities to that size ~ OK !
The Trios Day & Year is twice as long
As on Earth. I was twelve when I married
AOS was ten ~ we now have two Children
ALPHA (Boy) (4) also BETA (Girl) (3).
Developmentally Earthwise ~ 8 & 6 !
They start School @ 3 ~ remain up to 8
Their last year at School is vocational
Universities ~ Part-time or On-air.
Life on UTOPIA ~ is excellent
Good climate ~ no stress or strife ~ PERFECTION !
Thanks for visiting UTOPIA ~ comments please ~ BRIAN & ANGELA
We were contacted by PLANET EARTH (three light years away)
20 Earth years ago (10 Trosian years). It takes 3 E-years for a
radio message to reach TRIOS and 3 E-years for the reply to
reach Earth. Now we send information each week to exchange
information on History ~ Science ~ Art ~ Music & Sociology !
I am a BIOCHEMIST & AOS is a BOTANIST. I work in Education
and AOS in Research & Development. 75% of Trosians are
VEGETARIANS so PLANT PRODUCTION for FOOD is of paramount
importance. The 92 natural elements on TRIOS are the same as
on PLANET EARTH but so far we have only isolated 75 ! We do
not have the technology to synthesise TRANSURANIC ELEMENTS
and we do not have NUCLEAR GENERATORS. We generate
our ELECTRICITY using Wind ~ Hydro ~ Alturian (Solar) and
20% using fossil fuel (coal ~ oil ~ gas). The Laws of Science
are the same as on EARTH. We have NOT developed Space
Travel yet ! It would take an Earth Space Ship about 30 E-years
to reach TRIOS ! Every Blessing Love BRIOS & AOS ๐งก๐งก๐งก๐งก

a very nice piece. ๐
THANKS CRYSTAL ~ Pleased you liked it ! Angela & I are Scientists and therefor interested in SCIENCE FICTION ~ we decided to transport ourselves to another inhabited Planet in another Star System in the Milky Way Galaxy ~ The Planet TRIOS ~ AMEN Yours Brian ๐ & Angela ๐งก
You took me away beyond - great write.
Thanks UNCLE MICHAEL ~ Pleased you like it ~ Angela & I both love SF and it is always exciting to write (easier in prose than verse !) it lifts one out of the BREXIT ZONE ~ BLESSINGS Brian ๐ & Angela ๐งก
Unusual blank verse sonnet. I've not seen this form previously, but I like it.
The subject would interest the scientific mind.
The lines "Life on UTOPIA ~ is excellent
Good climate ~ no stress or strife ~ PERFECTION !" is a bit of a stretch or wishful thinking. ๐
If you want to get into space travel you may want to research superconductors.
Thanks for posting.
Thanks TAMARA ~ There are specific Structures and Rhyme Patterns for Classical Poets. For me it is the LENGTH that is important so I rate any 14 Line poem as a Potential Sonnet. There are Rhyming Sonnets and Free Verse Sonnets (no Rhyme or Rhythm !). In a Blank Verse Sonnet there is no Rhyme but the Rhythm is provided by each line being co-syllabic. In the above example each line is ~ iambic pentameter ~ 10 syllables per line ! Read it out loud and you will see it has Rhythm & Flow. Pleased you enjoyed concept. Angela & I like our SF to complement Science Fact ~ Every Blessing BRIAN ๐ & ANGELA ๐งก
A fine write B&A. I'm just about to catch the No. 7 bus. I believe it goes to Utopia. It always returns empty though, as everyone stays there!
Thanks UNCLE STEVE : Its the same with flights to NEW ZEALAND nobody ever wants to go home : me included ! Pleased you enjoyed the concept BRIAN & I both love SF and have reinvented ourselves as BROS & AOS on Planet TRIOS! Love & Blessings ANGELA ๐งก & BRIAN ๐
Hello Brian and Angela,
Hope you are both well?
What an interesting and vivid poem.
The state of the world at present is far from perfect and far removed from Utopia a lot of the time.
Keeo writing
