The Seven Astronauts

Folder: 
Honour

Her name was imagination

NASA space shuttle mission;

Columbia astronauts, Seven,

Kalpana, Clark, William, Brown

Commander Rick and Michael, Ramon

Eighty uninterrupted scientific experiments,

Bone disease, osteoporosis, and kidney stones,

To enhance quality of life, human;

Launched, 2003 January sweet sixteen

Mission, STS - 107

It's twenty-eighth trip,

Forever remain.

Midst's Stars and Planets

Across Heaven; In True Spirits;

Letting its body fall to sanctify the soil

Around Arkansas, Louisiana, Texas

Strewn across a wide radius,

Here on earth our silent tears,

Hopes against hopes

“The Shining Seven Stars”

"Are you talking about the stagnant fossils? Don't worry fossils would get drowned in rain and sandstorms self begun, the very unholy nexus."

it was the words of God
