Deep within the mountains
On a planet, away, but not far
There lives a different people
Who watch the yonder star

And pray it hears them calling
So they may leave this place
To find themselves a better world
Much warmer, than outer space

Here, they live in drifts of snow
Piled high and out of reach
No chance for them, to escape
These walls they cannot breach

Still they can’t help but wonder
As each day, the light grows dim
How they might venture out
But things look mighty grim

No one hears them, as they shout
Most refuse to believe it’s not fiction
And so they remain, forlorn, forgotten
Humans, once, an Earthly depiction

Humans continuously undermine, this place we call our home

Seldomly, do they realize, they’re leaving Earth, in disrepair

Our planet should be flourishing, not wan, nor monochrome

People need to wake up, and stop acting like they don’t care

 

Word of the Day – Seldomly
FOWC with Fandango – Undermine
Ragtag Daily Prompt – Wan

Final Elimination – #poetry – #JanuaryWriting

Spinning and spiraling, in total control

Its course set, for certain destruction

Sights zoomed in, on the planet ahead

All were ready, for another abduction

Colorful bands, swirling round and round

Meant to mesmerize the lower beings

In yellows and reds, violets and greens

Made this vision, a sight so worth seeing

Unaware of its diabolical plans, were they

No room for both of them, in outer space

This prismatic entity, was well on its way

To, at last, eliminate, the human race

Jupiter Glow ~ #poetry #AugustWriting

#AugustWriting, #poetry, dorindaduclos.com, glow, Jupiter, night, Night Owl Poetry, planet, poems, sky, writing, writing prompt


A different white light, in a star filled sky

Illuminated by night, as it drifts on by

A glow in the dark, shining down upon us

Leaving its mark, soon disappears, and thus

Hides the greatness, of Jupiter’s might

Til it shines in the lateness, again, ever bright

Poet’s Log: Star Date 2018 ~ #AprilWriting

22 Sunday Apr 2018

#AprilWriting, #poetry, #writingprompt, dorindaduclos.com, earth, Night Owl Poetry, planet, plight, poems, poet, space, stars, verse, words


Space, the lines on the paper
These are the scribbles of the Night Owl Poet
Her never-ending mission
To explore strange new words
To seek out new verse
And new split-infinitives
To boldly go where no poet has gone before

(Cue bizarre sounding music)

I fly through words, origins unknown
As I wander around my place
I’ve tried to use them all, you see
But they clutter up my space

Tossing papers, crumpled wads
Leaving poems, quite unfinished
I’d rather watch the stars go by
As my thoughts have now diminished

I need to leave this planet, Earth
Find a home, where I can survive
Then I can write, about the night
I landed, on Ceti Alpha Five!

April Writing Prompt:  This…is Ceti Alpha Five – Day 22/30
