Mars

Fetch me the moon and I will give you the red planet of our forgotten life blown away by the rust of time seducing imagination of mortal earthlings If the blue earth is my mother is the red planet my father see what you believe look and it is there monuments that testify something someone so similar to us Doubters doubt Believers believe Dreamers dream Doers do build me a rocket as big as a city fill it with hope fuel it with destiny roam the space highway and byways guide me back to abandon home let me breath the red dust let me taste bittersweet fate of ancestors My tears flow into rivers rejuvenating veins of life of the crusty surface opening the deep red heart bleeding life again live my father live If secrets of Mars ever revealed they would remember us
