solar system

onepauly

here we see the earth is round

and so is the sun it circles around

the rings of saturn intrinsicaly  patterned

jupiter that great big colorful ball

like planet mercury ever so small

mars is it red or is it pink

neptune is probably in the drink

with venus so close and pluto so far

uranus an icy blue so far

as the eye can see a quasar

this course is the source

of infallable knowledge

just as invaluable realms

are charted

    Paul, only a mind like yours could come up with such a great poem about our neighboring planets. I love the line "neptune is probably in the drink". You think they have whiskey up there?

      • Nicholas Browning

        I wanna get in on this action. Do you really think there's whiskey up there? I hope so. If I ever have to go to space, it would be nice to find some solace.

        Thank OP for a playful and elegant jaunt through the SOLAR SYSTEM ? Have you ever wondered why in the midst of all this LIFELESSNESS ~ Planet Earth is the only LIVING PLANET ~ In the SOLAR SYSTEM and probably in our GALAXY the MILKY WAY. Planet Earth (GAIA) enables You & I to be alive and have a FUTURE as well as a PAST & PRESENT ~ makes you think ! Please check my Poem & Fusion ~ Thanks BRIAN

                Awesome Pauly. I like to think that God is playfull but I believe God is the nothing that fills all the empty space including inside us. But also is the creator of everything.
