[hometext] => The Heavens are mysterious phenomena
[bodytext] => No words can accurately describe the Heavens But I do my best to try Trillions upon trillions of stars Light up the night-blackened sky I can’t help but wonder what it’s like up there Among the colour-drenched gases The supernovas and nebulas And bright star-clustered masses Different planets of distant galaxies And all that’s unattainable Meteorites and quasars are more That are quite unobtainable Light-years away are bright pulsars Emitting gamma and UV radiation Neutron stars and red dwarfs that Have just reached their emaciation But of all the plasma gas And asteroids out there And the dark matter known as space So cold and silent with no air I love our Solar System within This Milky Way Galaxy best Even when people are born and then die And then I get no rest And in this system all I see Are Saturn’s many rings The thought of death cries out (Or rather, I think it sings) That in death we have nothing to fear But black holes where our hearts should be So bright and warm inviting suns Are our hearts and minds you see Whether or not there are humans On any planet but ours Know this, folks, our destiny Is written in the stars So fear not for your life now Because when you do die Your soul, no matter good or bad, will float to The Heavens, the celestial bodies in the sky [comments] => 2 [counter] => 186 [topic] => 49 [informant] => Cupid [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 10 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => mystical )
