Xenon is a noble gas,
hypothetically rare,
fairly heavy in mass,
yet it is in every breath of air.

Invisible but always there,
in contact, since you are alive,
in little dosis to be fair,
better known from nightlife.

Direct discharge light,
is a well known application,
its very shiny, bright,
at night it finds appriciation.

Theme parks, nightlife, advertisment,
intensive pink and green at night.
everything but decent,
in modern cars, a bluish icecold white.

You can extract it with destillation,
from the air around us,
you need a excellent seperation,
to get it, is a lot of fuss.

Pure Xenon gas will send you fast to sleep,
if you are at a hospital,
its healthy and deep,
lets hope the surgery is not critical.

Last but not least is the Xenon laser,
its more efficient with helium,
but its shine looks like a Star Trek phaser,
I think that lasers are pretty cool.

A noble gas, with some certain use,
but for life not critical
got a fancy name to choose
with its shine, it has something mythical
