I was teaching space exploration to my Year 7 students this morning and the Teaching Assistant wrote us the following poem.

I though it was nice and am posting with his permission.

Moon Landing.

Oh Moon, celestial guardian of the night.
Benevolent place
In the dark of space.
Friendly satelite
of our planet Earth,
Watching Quietly
Since its birth.
Today I'll launch
From here to space
Soon to land on your smiling face.
I hope to walk,
Perhaps I'll drive,
Upon your surface
When I arrive.
I'll do my best
To inflict no pain
Then you'll let me come again.

Gazz 2010.

(I was still writing the date!)

Inspiring prose (appreciated by somebody not generally into the touchy-freely poem kind of thing!)
