Mars

Mars was visible last night
But hidden out of sight
By the clouds of the heights
It was to be seen next  to moon

Won't be visible again soon
For it will be 2020 when 
Appears and then
Will it be the same or kin

To a red firey ball
Blazing in the sky
Roaring through the heights
Dominating the sky

Love it-I often stare at the stars, since I work at night. The Big Dipper is overhead now and I believe I saw Mars in the west Monday night
