Afternoon With Astronauts

Afternoon With Astronauts

Summer
Boys play outside
Two or three good friends

Afternoon with astronauts
Lemonade backyard countdown fun

Cardboard wings
Box with glue and tape and paint
Rocket ship and wagon wheels

Five four three two
Run run run!

Fly fly fly
The boy commands
More more
Too slow, go faster!

Run run run
The boy demands
More more
Too fast, no stopping!

Pull the wagon
Backyard fun
Fly past the moon

Land on Mars
Astronauts are brave
Float around

Life on Mars
Watch the Earth and wave
Fly back home

Our nice Martian neighbors
Study the game with curious looks

What do they think?
What do astronauts do in space?

Nothing on the moon
Nothing on Mars
Nothing on the way to a faraway star

Summer
Boys play outside
Two or three hours of fun

Afternoon with astronauts
Who likes lemonade and backyard adventures?
