Forever a Monument
Contemplating destiny and achievement…
Forever a Monument
He walked on the moon
With one small step for a man
He began
What would soon
Prove to be man’s greatest leap
For decades beyond comprehension to come
For we haven’t gone anywhere else since that moment
But he was there then and forever a monument
To what can be done
When we leap
His effort a boon
To the legacy of man
For with his small step he began
A course that leads to beyond this planet’s doom
