Sense Sonnet - Pumper

 Space Shot for Shatner

Stat Trek's Captain Kirk went to space,

William Shatner, 90 years old,

Did take a trip in time and place,

Real Earth from above to behold.

Oldest person to space to date,

Bill did seem humbled by it all,

Calling the experience great,

Happy to have gotten the call.

No longer just a fiction plot,

Space travel is reality.

The final frontier will be sought.

What was imagined now will be.

Unlike Twilight Zone episode,

No creature on the plane wing showed.
