Literature Text

If I were a poet, I would write about the stars,
Tell you of their many colors, and how bright they are.
I would write about their relation with the moon
And yell about the dreadful way they always scorn the sun.

If I were able to be a poet, I would write about the sea,
Tell you of the many fish, and how they sing with glee.
I would whisper about her darling children
And tell about the way she's charmed by the handsome moon.

If I were to become a poet, I would write about the sun,
Tell you of his many feats, and how they were all done.
I would tell about his lovely goddess
And whisper about the way he rises every day.

If I were a poet, I would write about the Earth,
Tell you of his many people, and their words of mirth.
I would tell you about its many creatures
And write about the beauty kept within the gates.
