Apollo moon rock
crumbles to dust
contaminated by Earth air.

Regolith particles float in
Sun formed static clouds
decluttering in the lunar dark.

Here, rain plumped Mexican earth.
Verdant growth swarmed volcanic ridges
and time spawned life in brackish rills.

When rain clouds mass on the moon
and lunar dust softens in the downpour
will life flourish there, orbiting its long-dead mother?

Oh very nicely done, Bill! I still have room for a Moon poem, I think. Submit it for me. I adore

I doubt it somehow but it's a great thought.

Hi Bill. That's a really imaginative poem, creation in a nut shell.
I too love that final stanza, it's both fanciful and even possible. 

Thomas.
