India Is On the Moon

Vikram and Pragyan
mysteries of the south pole—
India's moon phase
Chandrayaan-3 dreams came true
Modi's quite over the moon

I guess I am not up on the news or the moon, but this seems pretty cool. Thanks for placing my non-sports poem, Mark!

You are very welcome, Andrea. It’s like what I said to Dilly Dally in response to her comment on my current blog. What is beautiful is that each poet who submitted a poem to my contest had a unique angle on the tournament and the sport. That’s what made the poems such a joy to read. Thank you for supporting my contest!

A story of triumph told in words that are so expressive, Mark! I can see the whole picture through your beautifully articulated tanka! "Over the moon" indeed! This is wonderfully written! Blessings!

Oh my goshh, this is stunning, I love that you highlighted the success of Chandrayan-3 mission here, such stellar lines.. Indeed, I was over the moon too, when I saw the live stream yesterday, a beautiful moment- :)

Thank you, Hiya, I'm so glad you liked it. Isro said today that all activities are on schedule, so it will be interesting to hear what they eventually learn as a result. Thank you for your encouraging comment!
