The Mysterious Monuments of Mars-W

Attracting either scientific or popular area
Containing several hills in the region Cydonia
One of the images taken by Viking on 25th July
The name Cydonia drawn from classical antiquity.

The image with a seeming look of a human face,
Let loose the human imagination inborn base.
To look at a thing is different from seeing a thing
Until we see its beauty we don’t see anything.

A hill, nothing but a space created illusive reality
Resembling a human face, a logical fallacy
Wrong speculation, demon haunted world on Mars
Let the future tell us  if it is a real play or farce.

Fourth place win in:

Thanks for pointing out the rewrite, Dr. Ram. I returned your Soup Mail. You may want to change the name of the form to rhyme as well. Love, Carolyn

You took a different approach, Dr. Mehta. I like the line "space creates illusive reality." Many things seem to do that -- illusions surround us! Best regards, Diane
