Happy Birthday, Tracy K. Smith! May your day be filled with cosmic joy—after all, anyone who can poetically navigate "Life on Mars" deserves a celebration that's truly out of this world. Your Pulitzer Prize-winning verses have taken us on journeys through galaxies of thought and emotion, proving once again that poetry is the best spaceship around.

From exploring the mysteries in "Duende" to asking profound questions in "The Body's Question," you've consistently reminded us that life's greatest adventures happen within our own hearts and minds. Here's hoping your birthday cake is as layered and delightful as your poetry!
