Keeping Things In Perspective Poem by Alfonso Siverls

Keeping Things In Perspective

Rating: 5.0


I am one of 6.5 billion
Human inhabitants of
The planet earth
The third planet from the sun

The planet earth rotates
At a rate of 17.5 miles per minute
As it travels around the sun
At 67,000 miles per hour

The solar system has nine planets
One star called the sun
And is part of a Milky Way

The Milky Way has 200 billion stars
And is part of the galaxy

The galaxy has one trillion stars
And there are 170 billion galaxies in the observable universe
No one knows about the unobservable universe

When you talk about how
the universe is talking to you
You must have some very very big ears
