I love space travel

I’m booked to fly on the 8.15

from Earth to Venus via Mars.

I’ve got myself a window seat

with a good view of the stars.

And then it’s on to Neptune,

Just in time for tea.

I hope my pet dog Pluto

will be waiting there for me.

I have my seat belt fastened,

a voice calls “Three, two, one…”

and then the spaceship’s flying,

far away beyond the sun!
