Breaking Earth's Bonds

The human mind can drive us to amazing heights There's no limit to how far, as our spirits take flight To the moon and beyond Breaking earth's bonds We're only limited by imagination and foresight

I often "slip the surly bonds of Earth"***//In a spirit spaceship I call "Mirth"//Foresight, I have none//but I still have fun//Silliness is my only worth. SOAR ON JACKSON!!! ***full credit to that spitfire jockey, John Magee, for the quoted line. RCAF, btw, but you knew that;-)

GREAT NAME for a space ship eh!!!!! Used to watch Harvard Trainers flying over my house! I dreamt of flying Spitfires when I was a kid! Was 10 when the war ended... WOW! Too early to realize how devastating it was! I USED TO SOAR EVERY DAY!!!
