planet poem

Celestial meeting to discuss trade

Red rain spurs the god of war on Mars 
Venus tosses her hair as she steps out of water
Jupitor looms large trident in hand
Gaia twirls in her blue green gown
Saturn 

Mercury (god of commerce and messenger), Venus (goddess of love and beauty), Mars (god of war), Jupiter (king of the gods), Saturn (god of agriculture), Uranus (god of the sky), Neptune (god of the sea), and Pluto (god of the underworld). 

Cocktail Party for the Gods

Mercury sent a message
Said he'd be late

Venus glistened in, Cupid in tow
Hair dripping wet

Gaia swirled in blue green silk 
Bosom heaving

Mars stormed in
Eyes and swords abalze

Jupitor adjusted his crown
64 moons fanning his ego

Saturn ran rings round the room
Topping up the salad bowls

Uranus stood in the balcony
Smouldering at Gaia

Neptune created waves
Tossing his windswept hair

Pluto brooded in the basement
Having lost his membership

Bacccus tended the bar
Orpheus led the band

Drunk on divine nectar
They missed Prometheus

Slip away with a torch.
