Saturn

S pectacular sight, beautiful, distant and mysteriou s,
A mazing ring attraction, like colors to the nebul a,
T antalizingly close, but from golden sun far apar t,
U nchecked, wild and free, like egrets on the bayo u!
R are, unique space drifter, since the age of cance r,
N ewly probed, but scarcely understood, secrets hidde n.

All and every planet has its mysteries, that are so intriguing and alluring, that man can't wait to conquer them and make them livable.. I doubt several of the planets on this galaxy, in fact I am quite certain will not prove successful for human living, but we only need one or two, lets not be greedy. Hugs and blessings.

That is so true, Jennifer. Just one habitable planet would be awesome! My bet is on Mars. Thank you for your thoughts. Kindest regards, Evelyn

WoW! Evelyn this is excellent. And you pulled off a very difficult piece with a double Acrostic. Kudos to you my friend. Good luck in the contest. I'm impressed. God Bless, JB

WoW! Evelyn, You penned a well written double acrostic about Saturn. Out of all of the planets in the solar system, Saturn stands out because of the ring it has around it. You chose a cool planet. Well done. Best wishes in the contest. Have a great day:-) Alexis

Saturn always fascinated me. With rings and planets orbiting the main planet. Pity it is so far away and uninhabitable. Lovely double acrostic.

Far more advanced generations will enjoy fantastic views, perhaps from one of the moons of Saturn. Thank you for your nice comment. :)

Wow, this is the best poem I read today. You should have the creation right. This should be double-way acrostic or acro-acro. Think about it, and it could be a new Evelyn form. Very well done; best wishes in the contest

I sure am delighted with your appreciation and warm remarks, but I really must decline taking credit for the double acrostic. I admired one that someone else had written, and decided to try it myself. I'm glad you enjoyed it, though. Thank you. :D
