Planets Poem by Jan Oskar Hansen

Planets
Pluto the charming little planet has got snow
not that anyone is going there soon it is good
to know how useless information pleases us.
a cat is not wise it only makes us feel good
to think Pluto is a cartoon dog and not a cat.
The grapes on the vines still need another month
before they can be harvested and that is ok by me
it is a beautiful day and far away from war,
treachery and the vanity of man.
Cold and alone Pluto can hang there as a faded
lampshade while we should try to discover more about
ourselves and the world we live in.
