Dedication
Oh Planets! You Balls in the Sky!
At times you are blue! Wonder why?
Did a comet flash tail?
Get you hot and blaze trail?
I’m sorry, I don't mean to pry.
Pluto
From the faraway planet of Pluto
Cornbluto came sporting a suit o'
Clothes to go swimmin'
With Olympian women--
But his strokes did not get him one kudo.
Neptune
A musician from faraway Neptune
Had thought he was playing a hep tune
For a girl in his lap,
But the girl said the sap
played her a
sorely
inept tune.
Uranus
It seems that the folks on Uranus
Say buenos to people of gayness.
They accept and condone,
Leaving one to one's own--
Now, is that so outlandishly heinous?
Saturn
There once was a feline from Saturn. She made oodles of scratch for a slattern. She made so much dough, The dogs begged to know-- How much scratch does that slatternly cat earn? Jupiter An Astral professor named Jupiter. The first name he gave it was Yupiter, But the folks at the school With all that they knew Said Jupiter sounded less stupider. Mars When things get too boring for Mars He loves to start spars at bazaars, And extinguish cigars On distinguished old Czars And take little kids to the stars. Earth A space faring wench, Captain Janet, Said this of our gravitas planet, The Jewel of Sol Is not a black hole, No Earthling should take her for granite. Venus Rhyme words are countless for Venus. Let’s keep the real hard ones between us. Mercury A spaceman returning from Mercury Crooned like a loon gone berserkury. His bird calling sounds Got him jailed on the grounds Of Sing-sing for gobbling turkury. Moons Tell the Orbs I was happy to list ‘em. Tell their Moons I am sorry I dissed ’em. But that rhyme word for Venus Is still in between us-- It's so hard to get out of the system. |
