Sense Sonnet - Tickler

Burn Yearn

A hundred billion dollar plan
Has been devised by NASA's best
To build a craft to send a man
All the way to the sun, to test
New technology that's been done
To insulate the space craft for
Safely landing on the sun,
Then moving about to explore.
NASA's so excited about
Getting this sun trip off the ground.
Yes, taxpayers may have some doubt.
Boondoggles come and go around.

To avoid it being too bright,
NASA plans to do it at night.
