The Decades

To think over Saturn one stays in thought
For more than five seconds;
To think over the Moon would entice
The soul for a few seconds;
To think over the Earth shall end us
When the whole world knows better.
When work of the centuries has shown truth,
You shall prevail over the decades
Entering the cast of characters on this planet.
