Specks Poem by Maya Reid

Have you ever looked up at the stars at night,
And felt like a tiny speck of dust?
Well, if you have, my friend, you’re right.
The entire human race is nothing but a little dot
When compared to Space, Time, and the whole Universe

Our sun is the closest star,
Shining so bright in the sky
But even it is so very far
That before we could get even halfway there,
The whole human race would be gone.

So, in our short time here, we need to create our dream
To get up out of our beds and join hands,
Because if we all stand together, as a team,
Maybe then we could change our world,
Even though, individually, each of us is too small to even see.
