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

This is stunning Laura. Covering the galaxy in the most poetic of ways. Love the line 'a strong mirrored reflection...'
