Some of you may have spotted Stuarts poem over in the 5-wheels thread, and rather stupidly I culled it ( in light of the new rules ) instead of moving it to here - because it's an excellent piece...hopefully he can repost it in here..

A bit of googling around and I found this

If you like MER, if you like Mars - read it...it's a stunning short story, almost had me in tears. Nico, you HAVE to read it, same with you Ustrax - it's utterly brilliant - it captures my visions of the future of the Columbia Hills very well indeed.

I was rather bored, so I wrote a couple of rather silly "poems:"

See the Mars Rover called Spirit
Travel so slow cannot bear it
Got itself stuck on a hill
Help it I hope someone will

-+|+-

Opportunity called for a rover
Opportunity that rover is called
Opportunity roved to a crater
Opportunity next to crater is small

Obviously I'm not much of a poet, but it passed the time.
