India made it to the moon,
but alas! They built a school up there.
The earth is too cramped with distractions
and so, in light of students’ education
was planned this spenderous affair.
So, every morning I woke up
and selected a space suit from the rack,
brushed my teeth, packed my lunch
and hurried shouting “Mummy, I am late”.
As my spacecraft landed on the moon,
I heard the school bell ring.
So, I flung out of my machine
and floated as fast as I could
to the gate.
“You’re late again,” my teacher remarked,
“What’s your excuse this time?”
Rocket’s don’t have tires to puncture
and my astronaut has died a million deaths already!
“Ma’am, I got hit by an asteroid, I barely made it alive…
and my homework floated away,” I floated another lie.
