The Wisdom of the Solar System

Blanketed in crimson, Mars glows with fire, while Venus sparkles with deep medallion- The twilit moon shining in fierce desire, each planet aligns into a stallion. Jupiter is the largest sphered planet, it acts as a strong mirrored reflection- Pluto’s surface is rough like harsh granite, the sun and Neptune make a connection. Our home galaxy is the Milky Way, containing two hundred billion bright stars- The comet soars like a keen castaway, bringing stunning life to earth from afar. The pure wonder of the solar system, brings phenomenal wonder and wisdom. May 11, 2017
