By Monty K. Fisher

There's a new star over Texas Its the symbol of courage unsurpassed There's a new star over Texas Its is a fire that will last

It holds the souls of the Brave That gave all and now are free Its the symbol of what they gave To find new things for you and me

They left us in a flash at dawn And served their duty well They have been taken far beyond 'Twas just the shell on fire that fell

They were out to achieve A purpose for you and I Searching for things in which to believe Beyond this Earth and Sky

They traveled so far above And watched us fighting down below And may have glimpsed the Love That engulfs the Earth you know

They saw how small we are And I'm sure a prayer was their last thought As they became a living star That we might fight the last war to be fought

They were the lucky ones you see No longer trapped down below They saw it all as God and Angels see That in this hate we may never know

So lets thank them today And ask them to do all thay can To send spirits with wisdom our way To open the eyes of earthbound Man.

Thank you Shuttle crew We will remember you.

Thanks Johnny, for the heads up to this.

And thanks for posting this, stoney. It's a beautiful tribute to the fallen astronauts. The poem by Monty Fisher is beautiful and the graphics are awesome.
