In the vast expanse of our celestial map,

Nine planets once held, in a cosmic trap.

But one among them faced a contentious fate,
Uranus, ousted from planetary state.

Discovered in distant skies, with telescopic eye,

Uranus danced with Neptune, in celestial sigh.
But as time passed and knowledge grew,
Uranus's status faced scrutiny anew.

Its size and composition, not quite like its kin,

A gas giant, yes, but something within.
Orbiting on its side, an oddity rare,
Challenging the definition, beyond compare.

In 2006, a decision was made,

To redefine what in the cosmos would cascade.
Uranus, stripped of its planetary crown,
Joined the ranks of dwarf planets, a cosmic down.

Though demoted in name, its mysteries remain,

Uranus, still fascinating, in celestial domain.
Download these lines, ponder the cosmic plight,
Of Uranus, once a planet, now in celestial light.
