I Wish I Could Go into Space

I wish I could drop into a book and see
everything like everyday life.
I would love to catch a ride on the North Star
and flow through the Milky Way
and lead Orion through the night
as it sleeps in the morning and dances
through the dark, as planets swirl around the sun.

    Hi Javier, that’s a really cool poem – I’m just writing one that mentions the Milky Way too.

    I wish I could have written like this in 3rd grade.

    Great poem! You are really talented. Please keep writing.

    You know, I think that a trip into outer space would be a holiday of a lifetime.
