Fifty one years ago we walked the moon

Now there are plans to return there soon

As time flies by, we celebrate each day at noon

While singing and whistling to a happy tune




Do we need to go back to that place

Or take care of our own human race

Time to put down the weapons and the mace

Before there are no humans, not even a trace




One person at a time is the way to start

Beginning the process by doing our part

Using our brain and our heart

Wow, that really does sound smart




Traveling again to the moon is a bad plan

Use our resources to help woman and man

Help others and become a  fan

In every way possible that we can
