Okay, so I just discovered we can post poetry on myLot, so here's one of my most recent. Hope you like! The Night Light A diamond glimmers in the distant sky. It brings pause to the night dweller. "How far? How big? Is anyone there?" And perhaps, once upon a time, a diamond dweller pondered similarly this blue ball that holds it's own secrets. Still, we here are driven to question the mysteries there. But they're not. For, their light, just now reaching us, extinguished long ago. Ours will, too, yes. And I ponder, now, the blue globe's secrets. Still, though. To reach a billion miles out and a million years back would be quite a thing, wouldn't it?

This is quite good. However, in order to give your poem a better structure, you should avoid allowing your lines to get progressively longer as the poem proceeds.

Thanks, John. I'll consider an edit and see what I can come up with.

The comedian George Carlin once quip that the purpose of man's existence was to produce plastic which mother Earth didn't have the tools needed. This was his sarcastic response to those "save the Earth" advocates. Our presence is hardly even a blemish on the face of this blue orb. Ponder the thought of man's insignificant appearance on planet Earth.
