Moon Hiking

“Moon Hiking by Maisie Aletha Smikle


Once there was gnome
Who lived in Rome
Nalomb the gnome liked to roam
So he climbed on top of a dome

From the dome
The gnome saw a drone
Dangling in full sight
Swaying like a huge kite

Nalomb the gnome
Watched the drone
As the drone hovered
And steadily maneuvered

Uncomfortably close over his head
Nalomb wished he had remained in bed
Guided by gravity
The drone stopped in close proximity

On top of the dome
Close to the gnome
Was the drone
Somewhere in Rome

The gnome thought of going home
But did not want to miss a chance to roam
So Nalomb the gnome
Climb into the drone

He tightened the screws
Fixed the bolts
Checked the volts
Load more power

Then dialed the tower
And reported after an hour
Gone hiking on the moon
See you very soon”
