Notes About The Poem

My 3 minute poem

(In Search of . . . the next dimension.) Added later because I ean out of time!!!

 

 

My Tribute to Spock

Spock was my surrogate dad as I grew up
My dad was alive but elsewhere
My mind was filled with stars and meeting aliens
I so wanted to be an astronaut once upon a time
I was lucky enough to see Leonard Nimoy
At a symposium during my college years
What an amazing actor!
He's still my mentor, even to this day
See you, Spock, on the otherside one day
(In Search of . . . the next dimension.)

Benjamin, Spock was my favorite character. I remember being so fascinated with space as a kid, avidly following up to the first moon landing. Your poem reminds me of that time. If my son's to be believed, he went to school with Leonard Nimoy's grandson.
