There was a meeting long ago
between a lonely engineer,
a chemical biologist,
and a brave pioneer.
Joining with them soon enough
was a host of ready volunteers,
a highly skilled machinist,
and a gung-ho bombardier.
They would not settle for this alone,
and hired a talented pamphleteer,
a studied sociologist,
and a crafty financier.
To spread the word far and wide
to all upstanding cavaliers,
or willing archaeologist,
in search of souvenirs.
They called upon courageous chaps
who raised a toast of frothy beers,
a renowned anthropologist,
who would record their cheers and jeers.
They brought together all their thoughts,
and abandoned all their fears,
with the approval of a physicist,
made the Universe appear.
Such ideas beautifully scattered
across an infinite frontier
along came the theologist
to christen this celestial sphere.
If I could invent a time machine,
and travel back to any year,
ask any other chronologist,
the beginning is where I'd steer.
