((( Let the Heavens Sing )))-

Saturn's rings sound out amongst its many moons;

Pulsating music; emitting their own cosmic tunes.

Another beautiful harmony of a universe of melodies.

Forever recorded in time; captured in a deep freeze.

*

Martian winds howl out distant chords of the past.

Mercury spins disco music and Venus is a gas.

Neptune is casually dizzy from the spectacle of it all;

As he hangs on precariously; drunken to Heavens call.

*

Jupiter rises as a knights kettle percussionist;

Pacing meter and balance for a universal song list.

Keeping its one eye open as a watchful sentinel will do;

Looking out for asteroids, which all of the planets rue.

*

Uranus sits in the balcony and makes an ass of himself.

Are we even sure it's a planet; that one's still on the shelf.

None the less the audience needs a heckler just to make us laugh;

As the sun showers us from time to time in it's radiated wrath.

*

Beyond the Milky Way is an ebony backdrop for the stage;

The stars spotlight the dance between all the calm and rage.

Black holes usher out the guests and clean up the cosmic dust;

Gathering all the matter and light; not caring or making a fuss.

*

The moon hangs lazily in a hot Earth sky.

Stars blink on and off and a comet races by.

It leaves you in humility; you listen as it sings;

About the wonderment of the cosmos, blackholes and other things.

*

Here we sit listening on a Earthen blue white marble.

How we ever got here is still something to marvel.

Intently, we listen to the songs that the universe always plays;

Drifting off to the hum of the Heavens as we sleep away the days.
