Space Mission
*************
Aboard an experimental spaceship
Shot into space at double light speed
Thirty first December twenty fourteen
Pilot was a happy smiling astronaut
Only two of us in reclining seats
Padded comfy with wild heartbeats
In a twinkling of our hazy eyes
We hurtled into the starlit skies
Leaving clocks,calendars far behind
2014 has been extremely kind
Silence reigned our shells pained
2014 has left us ever so strained
Bereft of Hope.. bereft of Vision
Alas earth is yet to breathe unison
Surely somewhere in a distant place
We'll find beings who'll not disgrace
The birds and bees,flowers and trees
These the nepenthe which life frees
Not Rubbish
