Traveling the Great Beyond
Up above our wondrous world
Unlimited possibilities
So vast, so encompassing
Representing man's abilities
Turn then your eyes to the stars
Twinkling beyond reach
Whispering of their mysteries
But quiet though we beseech
Bring your gaze now to our sun
Bringing light and life
Though in millions of years from now
A burning ball of strife
The planets lie ahead and behind
Each bizarre and beautiful
Though of the common opinion that ours
Has a beauty natural
