Reach Best

Fifty feet away 

On the other side

It sits

It's the moon that I want

But how?

How do I get it?
...
Reach

Reach far 

Reach hard 

Reach long

Reach best
...
Say it can't be reached

Well

It wasn't meant to be

But I always

Have backup stars 

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note-Reach for the moon.  Even if it can't be reached, you will always have the stars.
