Everyone uses radio waves                               

Everyone texts                                     

Everyone calls                                     

Everyone wants to know how               

everyone is doing

Everyone loves to gossip

Everyone loves to listen

Everyone loves to know the

whole story

Everyone wants to explore

Everyone wants to learn

One day, we sent

radio waves into space

and everyone wanted to know,

is anyone even there?
