“Write a haibun that references Mars”
As a child, I was intrigued by Mars purely for the color–a red planet.
If there were people living on Mars, were they red?
I recall eating Mars Bars, red letters outlined in gold spelling
“Mars” on the wrapper. Only recently I discovered that the candy
bar was named for the Mars family. They were from earth.

A delightful gem, Sara! I forgot all about the Mars bars! Thanks for the nostalgia! 🙂
