Jack Horne Poet Verse

Interplanetary Travel

I hope to view it all today,
Each planet’s just a whoosh away;
Revving engines, whams and bams,
Spaceships stuck in traffic jams;
Writing postcards seems so strange,
Waiting for the lights to change;
I hope to view it all today,
Each planet’s just a whoosh away…

Jack Horne for Nette’s Stardust in an Octelle contest, 5th July
