Love for Neil
Where does he go when the astronaut dies?
Does his soul rise—after lift-off—through skies
full of angels saluting such brave enterprise?
And where is re-entry? Our spaceman goodbyes
are brimming blue oceans, Earth’s tears in our eyes.
How much it means when an astronaut dies!
Neil Armstrong
