In the vastness of the night, Mars silently gleams,
A ruby beacon in the cosmic sea,
Echoes of ancient whispers in its dreams,
Guarding secrets of what once might be.

Red dust dances with the wind’s gentle caress,
Carving valleys deep and mountains tall,
Silent stories in the silence confess,
Of waters past and futures that call.

Beneath the surface, mysteries reside,
Traces of life in each hidden nook,
A world of wonder where shadows hide,
Waiting for time to turn its page like a book.

Mars, the enigmatic, distant and near,
In your rusted embrace, we seek and yearn,
For answers to questions held dear,
In your scarlet glow, our dreams return.
