For Peter who bought "more Green Fingers"
Gardening on Mars
Gloomy Martians need not despair
despite no blooms or atmosphere
For human gardeners have no fear
We may yet come
on the psychaedelic cosmic bus
with preety lichens and dianthus
To pot out alpines pure
guarenteed to remedy a cure
for rocky spots and barren zones
we can compiment with floral tones
With rocket fuel and gardening can
we can mastermind an interplanetary garden plan
plant up glades of pine and ebony
and make Venusians green with jealousy!!
