Color Me Beautiful

I live in a dark stretch of land part ocean, part lava sheer as light but opaque where the eyes meet I am a pool of hard matter, still I appear translucent, when you look at me with those big brown eyes. Do you fancy me? Color me beautiful and find out; I am full of helium, neon, ad hydrogen, perfumed by methane, ammonia and carbon dioxide, ... Do you like my silicon round, my phosphorus shine ? I wore a sodium spritz for you, feel my magnesium am I female/ male ? Color me beautiful and find out; I boast about my crust and my mantle is hard core stepping up to the plate I enhance the telescopes, with my sippy blue and splash of silver, I am me. Take your time before you X me in the box, I am moon cisgender to my nature, do you like ? I am moon, all moon, equivocally endangered when you select a sex for me, so won't you please, color me beautiful, no matter what hues you see. August 3, 2021
