Best Space Travel Poems

Man thinks he is so smart,
by putting people into space.
God did this many years ago,
Without rockets or a base.
Enoch walked right into space;
For God himself took him out.
He had no Shuttlecraft,
And he went without a doubt.
Elizah had a whirlwind,
For a rocket can,t you see,
No fuel...

When I take flight and head toward Pluto
I shall take optimism and enthusiasm
My hopes and dreams will be intact.
Positivity will lead the way.

As I bounce among the stars like a ping pong ball
I will retain my initial joy and excitement
There will be laughter and appreciation.
I...

Many eons passed on Earth, who only saw your face
Untouched your virgin body, floating there in space
Waxing, waning, gibbous, crescent, quarter, full and new
Selene the Greeks would call you; Diana, Caesar knew

Who would brave the ether, who would cross the void
To agitate the tranquil sea...

Daybreak slipping through these champagne curtains

Red silk; twined aneath crimsons sheets; awakening....

This afterglows mornings dew; her wet moist kisses 

Soft sunrise and whom can deny such love; about her

Kittens den; purrr; feed me this need of your heavenly

Breed; cranberry breast amid sweet sublime; suckling

Her thirsting...

Sir Richard Branson - Rocket Man
There was a boy who had not fared well at school
Years gone by and no one could call him a fool
Now a business tycoon and philanthropist
Virgin records, first venture on his checklist.

The owner of the Virgin Group he became
An entrepreneur...

Ebony black violent space
birth in depth, exploding stars
distances seem eternal
worlds spin traveling in circles
suns nothing but balls of gas
meteors flaming 
large and small craters
black holes gravity pulls everything in
space and time, matter and energy
heliocentric model from Copernicus's head
galaxy, Milky Way, dark matter
subatomic particles crashing atoms
creating...

I pressed my face against the thick pane of glass
And stared out into the black of nearest space
Where my planet-home Earth hung suspended 
Like a special well-worn ornament on a spruce tree
Decorated with multi-colored bulbs and angel hair
Earth swirling inside webs of gray cloud shrouding
So...

Steady and stealth are
NASA’s sleek steel ships,
their bright brazen tail lights
trail baby blue skies 
as they climb cliffs of rugged cloud banks

In Space or Spaced Out

Bones grow feeble without gravity
This is a serious matter, not to be taken lightly
Blood fails to reach the brain
We must bear this in mind
Space cannot be navigated by the light headed
The semi conscious, on a journey with such a faint map
Think...

Solar sails are set--
Stores secured, status shows green.
Surfing Saturn's rings....

Setting sail on the solar wind,
got a good photon jet stream,
so let the star voyage begin

Trillions of light-years
on the vast cosmic sea
Navigate through fierce magnetic storms,
coast through calm nebula estuaries

Quasars,
pulsars
Music of the spheres,
symphony of the stars

Watching baroque binary partners
move in their endless elliptical dance
Asteroid shoals...

Water lapping at edge of the boat beneath the silence of the sky
Swaying branches of mopane trees and fish eagles cry
Wind of changing seasons and melting palates of hue
in the blood red sunset glow and murky silvery water blue

Elephants in numbers dot the shores
hippo’s and...

All about me the butterflies feed and soar,
my heart flutters, my mind takes flight.
Every second electrons escape bondage, shed light—
this is how I would paint the day, flapping in joy,
instant by instant changing images, changing tune,
beckoning me beyond my world, afar, off on a flight
out...
