To Fly to the Moon

"...life's harder on earth's satellite..."

To Fly to the Moon

a sauntering nun on the surface moon
may slide, skid and drop like a log

a life-support backpack one needs to bring
carrying the load wherever you maybe

moon has neither gravity nor oxygen
life's harder on earth's satellite

and it takes courage, fortitude
to fly to the moon.
