A Little Future
Out there floating in the sky
is a little asteroid
she is looking up
waiting to fly
She knows that there is
a place for her somewhere
but she just needs
to grow up and learn more.
She is given a shove, a push
suddenly a space ship shoots by
she suddenly sees her path
clearly as she heads for our sky
She finally reaches her destination
shattering into a million pieces
she falls, burning to earth
and observers look up in awe
I am on a collesion course
heading to the great unknown
I am not sure of all that will happen
but a push in one direction I was given.
Someday they will know of me
and think of me in awe
when I have reached the highest places
and their expectations were overshot
They know who I am,
but not what I will do
I will make this world better
not only for me, but also for you
