For Asteroid Day (June 30th)...Duck and Cover and Celebrate with a poem called "Cosmolo...Gee"

SAN MATEO, Calif. - June 24, 2015 - PRLog -- FOR ASTEROID DAY (June 30, 2015)...DUCK AND COVER... AND CELEBRATE WITH A POEM CALLED "COSMOLO..GEE"

The first ever Asteroid Day is coming to the planet Earth on June 30th, 2015.

So...how will people be celebrating Asteroid Day?

Will they be celebrating with scientific research?

Will they be celebrating with reckless abandon?

Will they be celebrating with their eyes peeled toward the skies?

Well...here is one more way to celebrate our cosmic history and our cosmic destiny. You can celebrate with a poem called "Cosmolo...Gee" by Robert Barrows of the planet Earth. The poem is about the origin of the universe.

(The poem was recently published as a letter to the editor in the November 2014 issue of Sky and Telescope.)

I think you will enjoy reading the poem and I know you will get a kick out of the last line.

Here is the poem:

"COSMOLO...GEE"

Copyright 2006 by Robert Barrows

The universe began a long time ago.

How and when, we'll never know.

Did it begin with a great big bang?

Will it end in a tiny black hole?

Is it one continuous loop?

Again, we'll never know.

How does matter begin in a world without anything in it?

How does life begin and does it begin the first minute?

Do you think we will ever be able to go back to the beginning of time?

And will we find out the future there, too?

Is there reincarnation and déjà vu?

Is the speed of light the ultimate limit?

Does E=mc² hold true for antimatter, too?

And in the building blocks of the universe,

is E=mc² just one plus one equals two?

The answers to these might keep you up at night.

And how do you prove if you're wrong or right?

And imagine our surprise if we can someday go back to the beginning of time,

and we hear someone say..."Let there be Light!"

    Also, for safety's sake...What should you do if it looks like a meteor or an asteroid is coming right at you? An Astronomy professor I had in college said, "If it looks like a meteor is coming right at you...it is...so run away fast and duck and cover!"

People can see "Cosmolo...Gee" and some more of my poetry in a book called "Crazy Robert's Poems and Potential Song Lyrics" which they can download for a dollar on Amazon.
