A Poem to Celebrate The Astronauts of Artemis 2, “The Face of the Moon.”

 

THE FACE OF THE MOON

 

1. Serenity

         Tranquility                           

         Crisis                                            

         Vapors                                                   

         Fertility

         Nectar

 

2. From the Marsh of Sleep

         To the Bay of Love                         

         A Lake of Dreams                                   

                                                              

3. Langrenus         

         Vendelinus                                             

         Petavius                               

 

4. Serpent Sea                                                     

         A Sea of Waves                                                

         Foaming Sea                                                    

         A Sea Called Death                                 

 

5. Aristilus         

         Autolycus                                               

         Archimedes   

 

6. From Clouds and Moisture

         By the Seething Bay

         Storms and Rain                                                                                                      

         The Marsh of Decay

 

7. Then Rainbow and Dew

         As Tycho is Bold

         Past the Marsh of Disease

         To the Frigid Cold

 

8. Taurus

         Caucus

         Appenines

         Alps          

 

9.   Pyrennees           

           Carpathian         

           Jura 

           Mounts

 

10.   And There 

           Below the Riphaeus Heights

            They Flow and Sallow

            And Finish the Night

 

11.  The Man on the Moon

          In Her Aqueous Splendor

          Copernican Sky

          Aristarcus Kepler
