Space stations circling above the earth shuttles fly to & fro expanding adventurous thirsts & proving the human kinds worth; With visions on the ground below, telescopes from the great unknown, while love's rules & marriage rival the clone; Watching, waiting, anticipating, where? populations burgeoning choose to make their home; Distant planets that heat from their cores, with minerals, precious metals & ores, may easily sustain life, a man, children & wife, eternally busy with chores; Humidity domes bringing moisture in streams refreshing colonists keeping minds keen. |

So true..great way to look at it all through the eyes of the poet.....I love that, "humidity domes..bringing moisture in streams" well, ain't that the truth ...very good write! Welcome to Passions ! You'll like it here....take care ethome The poet is like a cocoon; in him the caterpillar of the past finds rest, and from him the butterfly of the future emerges. |

Enjoyed the read, the craig, you've an interesting signature, too. This poem, coupled with 2 news articles, this morning, your word clone brought back to mind, have inspired a satirical piece. Now I know your poem is far from satire, so please just bare with me and my strange mind. ;o} Virginia |

...hopeful vision of the future...I am praying that we make it there. I also loved the notion that no matter where in the future we arrive, there will always be chores to do. This really anchors this futuristic vision to the ground. Thanks for the enjoyable read! Jellybean King |

Outstanding. This piece has an appeal to me for religious reasons. You did a marvelous job. See you around. ~Allan If I had your eyes, I'd be blind. For I can only see out of my own. ~~Carly Van Dort |
