By the strangest of coincidences, I was just re-reading The Martian Chronicles (randomly picking stories) this week, after re-buying it because I lost my copy. So this story and the poem were on my mind. Awesome that your copy was signed by Bradbury! I only saw him in person once in 1997, from far away, when visited Buenos Aires for a book fair. I would have loved to get his autograph, but it was too crowded.
