Earth, Moon, and Sun
By: Claudia Lewis While the earth spins on, Turning, turning Toward the sun, The moon floats by In its circle In our sky. And while it floats, Earth and moon, two in one, Rush on With the bright planets In a ring Around the sun. And as they rush And swing And turn The gases of the sun Swirl And burn. |
