Memorabilia For Mars

With patience nourish yourself and help replenish the earth 
And when you grow old, infirm and crooked
Remember, you have done your part 
Seeded and harvested
No tree can ask for more as it sheds its leaves

There will be a day – 
When the earth crumbles
And all humanity scrambles away
on huge spaceships with all goods, inventions
Memorabilia for Mars 

Momentary - you are temporary 
And as you daily rise
You will fall 

But never your spirit determine 
You have been chosen in this time, 
this place to participate in the greatest theater of life 
Go - play your part 
And when your time comes 
Your spirit will mesh with mine for eternity
