Satellite
You turn the tide to ebb and flow
A pockmarked face of craters wide
Yet some of us still want to know
What's concealed on your other side
Groovy gray satellite in the sky
Who placed you there and why?
It is said at night you're cold as hell
And burning sunlight makes you glow
We hit you hard you rang like a bell
So we calculated you must be hollow
Groovy gray satellite in the sky
Who placed you there and why?
The lunatics they worshiped you
They fell into obscurity long ago
But maybe it was they who knew
And more respect to them we owe
Groovy gray satellite in the sky

Nicely crafted....so much mystery and things to wonder about. I could go off about that in all kinds of directions, but some of my ideas are not for the public.

Been over 40 years since we visited it in a tin can. That tells a story in itself.
Musings not fit for public consumption, ah yes there are many such and people often ridicule new ideas, for no other reason than because they are new. Me, i am a teaser, i throw ambiguous suggestions out there just for the halibut. Ripples in a pond, my friend, such fun to watch :-)
So very glad you liked it Angel, thank you

Yeah....how exactly did that work with the tin can?
Have you ever watched the press conference with the Astronauts after they came back? Very strange.....

Actually, no i don't think i have but since you mention it, i will. Possibly much if not all of the moon landing footage was filmed in a studio, but that in itself does not prove that they didn't go there. Maybe that footage was unusable because of all the ahem activity around them on the moon surface and huge signs saying Yankee go home :-)

Indeed mysteries of the universal sky
How did it all begin and why
We are all, just micro organisms when talking of the universe as a whole
Breathtaking in its beauty from those of us willing to pause and look up at the nights sky and ponder the how's & why's
Appologies for my rambling ramble xD

No, i love it when you ramble Rose and i thank you for it.
The universe is so huge making us appear insignificance in comparison. Yet we are told that all is relative. i wonder if ants feel insignificant, i am betting they don't.
Thanks so much Rose :-)

"Groovy gray satellite in the sky
Who placed you there and why? "
Just think when we look up there it is the same as our many ancestors have seen it, <mind blown>
14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:

And for so many generations we have wondered about and the more we learn of it, the more mysterious it becomes.
Glad you like it TIG, thank you for your comment :-)
