Have little to do with our Mars,

Resemble a ball
and none seem to have corner bars.

Now Venus and Saturn in June
All seem to be plumb in attune,
And you'll find out in space,
That there is no cute face..
Except maybe the man in the moon.

Now, I do not wish to be terse,
You must sit with a drink you can nurse,
And I think you will find
That it boggles the mind,
When you think of the universe. [comments] => 4 [counter] => 210 [topic] => 7 [informant] => norm [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 4 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => HumorPoetry )

Thoughts on the Grand Scale

Contributed by norm on Saturday, 21st August 2004 @ 09:16:12 AM in AEST
Topic: HumorPoetry

The sun and the moon and the stars,
Have little to do with our Mars,
Except that they all
Resemble a ball
and none seem to have corner bars.

Now Venus and Saturn in June
All seem to be plumb in attune,
And you'll find out in space,
That there is no cute face..
Except maybe the man in the moon.

Now, I do not wish to be terse,
You must sit with a drink you can nurse,
And I think you will find
That it boggles the mind,
When you think of the universe.

I know the awe of which you speak
although I haven't had a drink in a week
When you look in the sky
and marvel at why
the stars back at us would peek
