Asteroid Bound Dawn Poem by Ima Ryma

Asteroid Bound Dawn



I am Dawn, a space probe Earth sent
To study the asteroid belt
Where two woulda been planets went,
Vesta and Ceres always felt.
Two thousand eleven, I got
To Vesta, shouting no hello,
Orbited round and snooped a lot.
Fourteen months and 'twas time to go
On to Ceres. If all goes well,
I'll be the first to beat the odds,
Doing double duty - do tell!
First time orbit - 2 ET bods.

It's been a trip to go and find
Two close encounters of 'roids kind.
