My Heart's Desire Poem by Ima Ryma

The movies, 'E.T.' and 'Cocoon, '
I first watched many years ago.
Sometimes I gaze at stars and moon,
And wonder what's out there to know.
To meet a traveler from far
Away in outer space does fire
My heart to wish upon a star
That fate will fulfill my desire
To meet a real E.T. who will
Take this old body, soul and mind
And head off to universeville.
I'll well represent humankind.

So if one day I disappear,
Hope E.T. took me outta here.
