Neptune

A grand blue mass of dreams and illusions
A Piscean planet of sensitive delusions 
Light years away from the land we call home
Our very last neighbor in a space of its own 

Only water lives here, forget about the sand 
An icy blue atmosphere takes up all the land 
It’s birthday comes once every 165 years
It’s rings barely visible, it’s like they disappeared

With supersonic winds, it’s a force of nature 
And of the fourteen moons, Triton’s the major
This cerulean sphere has seen all the danger
It orbits so gracefully.. a beautiful stranger.

Wonders of the universe. Wonder what other galaxies hold for us to discover. Nice rhyme Sophia.
