Edge of SpaceA Poem by DonaldAre you a person how is curious about the universe around us. Is it something that you would like to see with your own eyes.We have gone to the edge of space. The outer limits of our world, and to the Moon beyond. But that is as far as we have gone. That is how far we have seen with our naked eyes. We have traveled to the far planets in our system, but we have not seen them with our own eyes. But through the graze of machines that went before us, we have traveled beyond. We have watched them from the safety of our own world. Yet we long to travel to these faraway shores. To make our mark on the distant worlds that lie before us. To see them with our own eyes. To walk across the plains of Mars, to see the rings of Saturn as they were met to be seen, the moons of Jupiter lie out there too, these are our dreams. We write many tales of what could be, but we wonder if they will be. For man has lost his wonder lust, he no longer cares to explore. That great unknown that lies before us, on that distant shore. We must make these visions come true, or die just a little more.
