I set myself down and looked into the sky
above this reddened alien land and saw
again my giver of life, as the sun rose high.
'Twas the very same firey sphere
you know at home, but the cold still kills
and that's why I am your ambassidor here.
I'm glad I made it and happier still to tell
you all about the reddish world I see
and let you know that all is going well.

I have already given the rover a personality, and I heard his voice when I read your words. This is cool.

Philmont:

I like your little poem, and I'm sorry I'm late in commenting on it.

It is a quaint little piece, but it is not without spelling errors and the rhyme scheme is a little weak in places.  Ambassador.  lol.

Your personification of the Mars rover is indeed a good idea.  I will not be surprised if such things as the message you've enclosed in this poem do indeed come to fruition in the future.  Perhaps we will have AI probes with personalities in the near future.

Keep up the good work, Phil!
