The New Moon Prophecy

In orbit around a distant sphere
An unknown moon will soon appear
Lined with streaks of blue

The warmth of friction,a blanket of gas
Will cling to the surface, held tight by its mass
All we thought we knew

Will be consumed by what is known
The Joyous truth, we're not alone
Time will come to tell

No diplomat will need be sent
To its home bye the geological vent
They'll have but a single cell

Amazing piece of work, you have put a lot of thought into this one. I am not sure if all have grasped the intricacy of thought you have here. Well done!
