The dusty plains
of Mars, our neighbor planet,
may be our future.
This is my entry for a contest sponsored by NASA. Three Haikus are to be selected to be engraved on the spaceship( unmanned) that will be sent to Mars next year.  This is the first Haiku I have written since the fifth grade when I was in Miss Marr's English class. That was a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away.  It is hard to achieve ambiguity in 17 syllables but I think I have done it.
