A planet with colors of green and blue
And of course, grey for it's moon.
We then explore further inside,
We wonder what secrets this planet hides.
Could it be aliens or monsters that hunt in the night?
Or creepy creatures with sharp teeth that bite?
But as we go through the clouds soft and white,
A wonderful view opens our eyes.
From fresh green leaves that sway in the air,
To animals that are almost everywhere.
Water that flows from top to bottom,
That sort of feels like a bunch of cotton.
And tell you what? That's not it!
There's so much more! No time to sit!
Look at the mountains, so many times taller than us!
And the trees that give us oxygen we need to have fun!
It was night and we lay in the grass and watched the stars,
I wonder if we could even see Mars!
