SPACE ODDESSY

The Sunday Muse #128 

Submitted October 5, 2020



Everyone planned for the space race
the space suits, the lift-off and all
intricate mathematics were involved
and posted on the war room wall
the astronauts were chosen with care
and spent much time to rehearse
victory was in their grasp
but alas the Monarchs got there first

  7. Until the last line I was reading as if a different type "space race", like a marathon or high school cross country. I am glad that you went to the regular, I was a part of that at NASA Houston as an Aerospace Engineer.

  8. Running to catch up with the butterflies. :) It's difficult, even when not on the moon.
