Saturn ’s Rings

Neal Levin

They've just discovered

Saturn's rings are made

from ordinary things

that vanished or that got misplaced

and floated out to Outer Space.

Not just little bits of rocks.

The rings are made of missing socks，

lunch money， remote controls，

contact lenses， doughnut holes，

grown-ups'long-lost baby teeth，

last December's Christmas wreath，

Daddy's keys and Grandma's hair，

my last clean piece of underwear，

And so I'd have to say that，

yup， that's Where

my homework ended up.
