Question: Will the Phoenix land safely!?
The Phoenix Arrives
by Elaine P (5/24/08)

We are no longer alone on Mars,
the Phoenix arrives tomorrow
bringing Earth’s scientific probes
to the poets’ sorrow!.

This bird has risen from the ashes
since I can’t remember when
sometimes I wish it would stay down
and never rise again!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
