Exotic Yet Alike

A distant light in the dark sky

A place immeasurably distant

Who must live there, how and why

I close my eyes and transport in an instant


Trees in the sky, clouds on the ground

An exotic bug stumbles through a river

Purple liquid flowing all around

The excitement just makes me shiver


A distant call from a foreign bird

Flapping four wings with ferocious speed

Some bipedal horses herd

Chewing on red grass and yellow weed


Finally I see a four legged creature

Using a harness to climb a tree

An incredible mind, an intelligent feature

And now heโ€™s looking up at the sky back at me
