Neptune
Neptune boasts the strongest winds
And the wildest storms
Deep blue Neptune
Similar to the sea on a stormy day
Its angry, uncontrollable storms
Make Neptune perfect for its name
Cold, light-hours away and uninviting
Neptune holds many secrets
Only a fraction of which have been made known to man
Such as its faint, dusty and icy rings
And companions as icy and unfriendly as their planet
We’d better leave this bad-tempered planet alone
As bad-tempered as the god from whom it took its name
We don’t want to go near
An icy surface where the most powerful storms ever existed
