Last Laugh
by Lee Bennett Hopkins
They all laughed when I told them
I wanted to be
A woman in space
Floating so free.
But they won't laugh at me
When they finally see
My feet up on Mars
And my face on TV.
When I'm An Astronaut
by Bobbi Katz
First I'll get into my spacesuit.
Then I'll bravely wave good-by.
Next I'll climb into my spacecraft
Built to sail right through the sky!
In command inside the capsule,
I will talk to ground control.
When we've checked out
all the systems,
I'll say, "Let the countdown roll!"
And it's 4-3-2-1 - - blast off - -
With a smile upon my face,
I’ll spin loops around the planets
up, up, up in outer space!
