The Planets(Mercury)
Oh Mercury divine, how hot thou art.
Burned by the sun, you spin endlessly on your celestial journey.
Impossible for humans to inhabit or even visit,
Yet still you fascinate us.
Only visible in twilight or the early morn,
Yet still we look for you, even though the sun tries to hide your brilliance.
You have not yet been fully discovered.
What secrets do you hide?
Will we ever truly know?
*work in progress*
