The Moons of Jupiter

could someone please tell me of the moons intentions and of their affair with Jupiter's rings when lo and behold Io has a fire in her belly snowy volcanic fields burning ice in her spring Europa stands by displaying cold shoulders with oceans below life she does bring brother Ganymede pulls it together dark are his regions light his terrain beaten and battered Callisto the stepchild unchanged in its matter and the song that it sings is this all true of Jupiter's moons and of their intentions could someone tell me

Interesting Jupiter write Mike; I didn't realize that planet had so many moons around its rings…how awesome is that! An interesting informative write Mike!~Che :) PS I still don't believe that we actually went to the moon because of the highly radioactive Van Allen Belt~:)
