About
Blue Planet
Within my mind, I live on a small blue planet.
Everyone seems far away.
Everywhere is blackness,
Yet when I look around me,
Abundant life consumes each moment.
I wish everyone could see this blue fragile life
Floating in the blackness—
Next time they miss the bus,
Next time they forget to look and smile.
We float on a blue dot—
We should all be frightfully concerned.
No matter what you think, what I think,
We will always be on this blue dot,
Unless you are the master of darkness
Or the emperor of blackness.
Look at each other—
Be kind,
Stop,
Look up,
See blue.
Realize that color came from somewhere.
It could be another color if we don’t play our cards right.
We should hold our worst enemies,
Because even they love blue.
