The Final Exodus

The Final Exodus

By Paul McCann

.

In the endless space above us 

there is an unexplored cosmos 

That awaits the  earths exodus

when that time has come upon us .

When the climate control is finished 

and the atmosphere diminished 

then our crops can’t be replenished

on the planet  that we’ve damaged .

When life on earth come’s to an end 

and the human race has to send 

people to where life can extend 

to a planet that is our friend .

Out In space there’s no night 

no day ,

or any signs to show the way ,

no sense of time

that fades away

into an eternal delay .

To find somewhere that we could stay

and to live  in a peaceful way  ,

like pilgrim’s of  a future day 

to a brand new world far away .
