The Moon Could be colonized, and it would take decades, and a massive amount of money (Billions or Trillions of Dollars), and might cost a few lives because of accidents. To quote Jeff Goldblum in Jurassic Park; "It's not just Can we do it, it's also Should we do it." I say No, because the effort to colonize the Moon is not worth all the effort and expense it would take to do so. It would also take away money and resources from other projects here on Earth that are more worthy of our tax dollars and people power. There is No good reason to colonize the Moon.
Yes!
Human beings have not colonized the moon or any other planets as yet. The only things on the moon are the things the astronauts left from the moon mission.
Mozambique was colonized as a precious port in which the portuguese could stop on their way and back from India where they seeked to trade spices and silk for instance.
We can't be absolutely sure how long a footprint will last on the moon since it might or might not be struck by a meteoroid or other cosmic debris, but potentially it could last for billions of years. It is also possible (although I am not expecting it) that the moon will someday be colonized by people, who will then disturb the existing footprints. But then again, they might want to preserve them as monuments.
madagascar was colonized because of all the lumber that was there and beacause it was sorounded by ocean and could be a good place to stop and get there ships fixed and rest before they went somewere else
Peru was colonized by the Spanish. It was originally home to the Incans, but it was taken over just because the Spanish were trying to conquer and spread their influence as far as they could.
You could call your haiku, The Moon.

Sure they could. If we could get the buggers to grow on the moon in first place, that is.
How could it? It's already there, being the Moon!?
No, the moon could no keep an atmosphere if one were created.
