July 20th, 2009, is the anniversary of the first moon landing. In honor of the occasion, and because I’m a total space nut, and have watched the HBO series From the Earth to the Moon, which dramatized the history of the Apollo missions, our theme from mid-July til mid-August (ahem SEPTEMBER) was SPACE.
Personally, I find inspiration when I look up at the stars and imagine. So do a lot of others, including those who’ve actually been out there, which is why our prompt quotations this month are all taken from the Space Poetry page, at the Encyclopedia Astronautica. Please visit the page for the complete text of the poems I’ve chosen.
