Flight 370 Things Suspended In Air

Flight 370 Things Suspended In Air Fresh out of bed In long disjunction with the day With due reverence for the missing Suspended in the air All things held suspect Something takes shape out there But there's nothing there We’re not quite sure Nothing looks familiar How did they get..... somewhere? A woman then approaches With every sound of softness She told them to relax With every confidence This flight has ended in the air It’s been suspended It does not really matter Things like facts Let us gather more data though We're good at that They asked her why Some things have no answer We don’t know why This conversation Like the flight Has ended Somewhere in the sky

Hi Debbie, I'm glad you enjoyed it. Thank you for your kind words. Yes. Someone might be disassembling it as we speak and selling the aircraft for parts on the black market or something worse. What a hellatious experience all this must be for the poor families. Thank you again for commenting on my little poem. Have a great day. Earl

Too bad no mention of the "best kept secret" in the Military, Island Diego Garcia upon where our US Navy base is located in the Indian Ocean near where the witnesses saw a low flying plane. Meanwhile great poetry....Thanks

Hi Judy. I'm always aware of peoples responses to my works, in our supersensitive culture, on sensitive matters such as this. My intent is to write a mystery about a mystery. I'm glad you see that simple point. I am interested in exploring the Island Diego Garcia mystery. Thank you for giving me that information. I deeply appreciate your kind response to my simple poem. Regards, Earl
