Light Verse

A man stepped onto a star,

Asked, “Can I have a blink?”

“You’ve had too much to think,”

Said the star, “Go to Mars.”

But the planet, dull and red

Had burnt out, gone to bed.

“All I want is a wink of light,”

Said the man to the blazing sun,

Who replied “Oh, thou person,

I don’t think you’re very bright.

Don’t look up here for a moral.

Her eyes are blindingly auroral.”
