Cool Blue

Looking cool 
Wearing blue 
Fly through the air 
Wingman as their pair 
Patrolling the skies 
Ready to encounter bogey lies 
Like eagles they soar
On this speed tour 
Landing on a carrier for air craft 
Navy catches them, preventing a bath 
Hearing political wrath 
You see 
It is we 
Not I 
We cry 
Surviving the situation where one could die 
When defending things 
Spreading our wings 
Together standing tall 
Against evil forces who need to fall
Using a soft loosened grip 
Respectful dialogue in our spoken script 
In the reality human game 
Glorified in deadly fame

Cool Blue. It must be air force? I enjoy poems of action and danger. Good poem to read.

I just wrote first off in a tweet. Made some additions and submitted it to the anthology. Thank you for liking it.
