Godspeed Discovery!

I am few hours away,
From seeing the dreams of yesterday,
The hopes of today,
And the reality of tomorrow*,
All in one place.

A childhood friend,
Now a mother with a baby girl,
And me,
Have a hot date watching
Discovery fade away
For the last time in its long history.

Bon Voyage Discovery!
You have been more than great.
"Light this candle, make it right!"

* Referring to Robert Goddard's famous quote: "It is difficult to say what is impossible, for the dream of yesterday is the hope of today and the reality of tomorrow."
