Poem on Mars

 Happy New Year!

I wanted to post a poem I composed on seeing the perseverance land on Mars along with the success of Amal and Tianwen-1 probes


Ground in white and flames of gold,
Once you leave earth, you will know
The dream of flight, passionately bold.
The dream of stars, dreams of Titan’s snow

Red in blood, to red in dust,
Grit in ink, standing on Newtonian shoulder
Born a child's laughter, now a mother’s trust
Our will - this, to fly to our next boulder

Once you leave earth, you will know
The cost of blue, the music in brown
Green are the pastures, only the sheep to mow
Empty our docks, no ships to drown

Gaze towards the sky, you'll know
And rage against our prison, our astral dome
We will our lightning. We must go.
For in our heart, adventures are home.
