ASTRONOMY FIELD TRIP

explore the sky at night—

They marvel at the sight.
But rocks in space called asteroids
that flare when they ignite
in the atmosphere of planet Earth
give dinosaurs a fright.

While some contributions will be featured as daily ditties this month, all contributions will be included in a wrap-up celebration tomorrow, Friday, April 27th, and one lucky participant will win a personalized copy of their fun new rhyming picture book from POW!
