Travesty

Comets, asteroids, meteors, oh, my!

how these flying rocks light up the sky

such mixes and flights of the shining stars

they travel, unravel, bedazzle so smart

we watch them all wondering

if they can mean something more

is there life out there among them

will we meet the strangers, before

our planet turns cold from the damage we do

let’s take care of her, beware of her,

for one day she might

let us down and tumble on her path of flight

hold onto your hat, may the world understand

that the amazing gift we have in our gravity

could be disrupted if we hurt her,

that would be a travesty.
