The moment stretched forever with his breath His mind and hopes there spinning with the earth For ne'er before had he known, birth to death An instant that so changed his mortal worth For there before him danced thru naked space ALL life thus known and all ... the human race. Written and submitted on October 2, 2019 For the "Make It Six" Poetry Contest Joseph May, Sponsor. * I used photograph number three (#3) of moon and earth, taken by atronaut Michael Collins. *
