Snow on Mars

So it snows on Mars

And there is day and night on Pluto too

Of course its not a planet

( But it will do).

And the seasons on Venus

Hot and Hotter

Though they be

Change

With a regularity.

And the outer bounds

Of the Solar System

Are not as distant

Though a few light years away

They are.

And maybe

On a distant planet

Of a distant sun

Or maybe a double sun

Another life form

(Dare we imagine

It as carbon based?)

Is perhaps wondering

Just how amazing

The known universe is.

How knowing a little more

Shrinking present knowledge

In the light

Of future discovery

Makes the knowing

Even more wonderful.
