Poet’s corner: One-moon planet

One-moon Planet

By Hedy Huss

Planet Jupiter trumps all the rest.

In numbers, it the best

with 63 moons!

So many moons …

Their dozens can make you swoon.

But, has an inhabitant of the

multiple-moons planet walked

on an orb?

Not that we’d have the word.

But “one small step” and

planting our American flag

bear witness.

Around these solar system parts,

U.S. passed the test.

The one-moon planet has made history.

The future is a mystery.

Only one moon? Don’t whine!

You appreciate full moon shine.

Find the faces and cameo of a couple;

Your enjoyment may double.
