Any closer to the sun and we will all burn,
any further away and we will all freeze,
a perfect setting, our great earth.
Plants give off oxygen.
They purify the air we breathe.
The moon turns the tide.
It carries the seasons.
Stars are seen at night.
Sailors use the stars to navigate the sea.
A bright star is a point.
A big bright star is precision:
land-ahoy.
71% of the earth is covered in water,
a great blue sea still being explored.
A lot of our learning comes from animals,
a natural instinct to survive,
a scent beyond our understanding.
