Amelia Earhart

Amelia Earhart
David J Walker 

Betcha didn’t know
A previously undiscovered crater 
on the moon 
Was named for Amelia Earhart.
And if I go real soon
I’ll take part 
In the tourist excursion 
And swoon at the
Armstrong flag and
Ace the Alan Shepard Mini-Golf course 
And drive the Scott and Irwin 
Moon-buggy ride 
Popping wheelies in the Moon-dust
After that
There’s not much to do 
Except wait and gaze at the Earth 
And ponder the fate
Of Amelia Earhart

Betcha  didn’t know 
They think they found her
Anti-Freckle cream
On some remote island
I wonder if there is an excursion
