Remember them

Remember them.

One of the proudest moments of my life was when NASA requested to use one of my poems in their tribute to the Mercury 13, the early women astronauts who blazed the way for others to follow.

I wept when I received that letter. Because in some small way it took *me* to the stars, too.

Thank you. I try to observe those clustered anniversaries, but somehow I missed them this year.
