Just a little fantasy on Mars

Mars Dreams

Solar winds blow across a desolate desert.
Red sand as far as the eye can see
So beautiful, my eyes can't be averted
This, the greatest adventure for me.

I love this desolate place of my dreams.
The journey, I knew, I couldn't resist.
I never could grow tired it seems,
of the trip across the great empty abyss.

Visions of this quest at ten years old
Watching space programs for years
Plans for a fantastic trip began to unfold.
Regardless of some opponent's sneers!

I begged, I prodded and yes, I even pleaded,
for the first chance to tag along.
What I'd always wanted and needed,
a chance to hear my heart's true song.

When the great day finally did arrive,
my excitement, they could scarcely believe.
I was going to fulfill my lifelong drive,
toward those wonderful Martian Dreams.
