Space

by Sana Mohammed aged 10

There are nine planets
That orbit the bright, beautiful sun
But people and animals
All live on just one.

A rocket’s the best way
To travel to space
With one great big powerful blast
You can go any place!

Astronaut travel
A long way through space
They learn fun and interesting facts
To bring back to the sturdy base.

There are bright starts
That shimmer high in the sky
Making fun shapes
In all different shapes and sizes

Astronaut mostly travel
To a place called the ISS
It’s dark and empty
And very miserable
But astronauts manage
You must wonder what do they do
In such a dark place
Well let me tell you the mysterious things
That they do there

Astronauts arrive on the ISS
Staring across to the other side
Glaring at the dark and empty place
Hoping they will go back home
And enjoy with their family
Sit down on the couch
And watch some TV
