Wonder Land?

A dark star shimmers
winks in a sky silver, not blue.
A morning made of setting sun
bows to evening of yellow hue.

Trees perhaps, whose roots are up
foreign water, crimson over head.
Seems odd to find precious air
layered under, an ocean red.

From the ship, it seemed odd
once landed? even so more.
A planet lost, upside down
standing under, on ocean shore.

One for the books, warning perhaps
enviroment benign; just terribly bizzare.
The air as Earth’s, only silver
bedrock under; ocean, then stars.

The ship dark, she shimmers
bekons home with human hand.
Through a looking glass, Alice
could this be your wonder land?

    Tramp Poet:
once a scooter tramp
no choice about poet...

poor Alice...I don't think I'd like everything upside down, but I sure liked this.
