Pale Blue Dot
N. Raubenheimer
From this distant vantage point
The earth may not seem of any particular interest
But for us it's different
Consider again, that dot
That's here, that's home, that's us
On it
Everyone you love, everyone you know
Everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives
Every hero and coward
Every creator and destroyer of civilization
Every young couple in love
Every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer
Every teacher of morals
Every corrupt politician
Every superstar, every supreme leader
Every saint and sinner
In the history of our species lived here
On a mote of dust
Suspended in a sunbeam
Suspended in a sunbeam
Suspended in a sunbeam
