Question: A Poem - The Sweetest Air Breathed, the Martian Saga - Do You Like!?
It appears, the atmosphere
is more congenial than once perceived
Domes become dismantled
and the sweetest air is breathed

The moons brighten the sky
adding to the sun's luster and welcome
The spin slow, unhurried
offers life's reflection

Gardening and poetry
are but two glorious gifts of pleasure
Turquoise roses and prose
guiding work and leisure

Yes, the correct choice was made
from Earthling to Martian population
People live together
with one flag, one nationWww@QuestionHome@Com

*****

You, my dear, have made things clear
Unsmogged the true blue atmosphere
You speak of things as though you know
How this river ebbs and flows

I worry when you stand alone
Forsaking crown and royal thrown
I know you'll smile and remain chipper
As soon as I help you with that zipper!.!.!.

hehehe

I love everything about this poem!. You made me get teary because it sounds so beautiful and peaceful!. I would love to live in your Mars!. The line "!.!.!.the sweetest air is breathed" is just lovely!. also, being a rose freak, I'd love to grow turquoise roses and be a gardener on Martian land!.
One flag, one nation, AND the right to maintain our own spiritual identity :) Beautiful poem in concept and form!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Wow!.!.!."Turquoise roses"!.!.!.!?! Clearly an extra-terrestrial flower!. Such an interesting metaphor!. I mean of course roses comes in various colors but the poets from Earth normally refer to "Red roses" in their poems!. Weird and unique, aptly chosen for such an "exotic" escape island like the Mars!. =)Www@QuestionHome@Com

are but two glorious gifts of pleasure"
