Space Race

We whoosh around in outer space
Much faster than the speed of light;
As none can see our spaceships’ race,
You say you’ve won and start a fight…

For Susan’s Space contest

Did you win this race my friend, through space and infinity? I loved how you approached this incredible poem! I really enjoyed reading this delightful piece this evening, you have inspired me to continue writing my novel that I have started, a space story, aliens and everything! Anyway, this is another one of your masterpieces Jack, Great Work!!
