Group C: Venus and the Ark

This poem has a religious meaning, just as Noah and the Ark did. In both stories the human places an animal in a type of vehicle, which is done to avoid the end of life. It is mentioned that it took seven months for life to flourish on Venus. The seven months relate to the seven days it took God to create Earth on which the seventh day he rested. In the first six months, the animals could fit in their cages, but finally in the seventh month it was time for them to abandon their cages and spread out among Venus.
