On October 27, 1980 Kalpana Chawla wrote a poem to her friend, which she titled 'Toward the Goal'. rediff.com reproduces the poem as a tribute to brave astronaut.
Dive deep down
An aim awaits
Pearls peep
For your hands to reach
Just yours
For years, decades and ages
A door lies locked
A pearl in the shell
A secret in the brain
Open it
Break it
Reveal it
Fly high
