the galilean moons

the largest moons of jupiter

are not that hard to see:

ganymede is bigger than

the planet mercury;

io is a fiery place

with hundreds of volcanoes;

castillo sports a pitted face

with huge, primeval craters;

europa has deep waters where

new life-forms might abound–

yes, i love to watch these worlds

go dancing ’round and ’round.
