Flight Mh370

People were busy looking at the monitor in the airport. 
 Newly-weds, vacationers and some hoping for a chance 
 found their seats and settled down for a long trip. 
 The airplane ascended until cars resembled ants. 

 Exited, some of the group had never flown. 
 Some passengers napped while a child cried. 
 Hours passed and a regular flyer questioned, 
 “What’s going on? This is not right!” 

 We know not the rest of the events. 
 A mystery may not ever be solved. 
 Panic-stricken families, baffled friends~ 
 The only emotion that may remain is love.

A tragic mystery. Edna, I can't consider a thought of a loved one missing this way. Enjoyed

Superb write on a "lost" aircraft that still remains a mystery. I read about the new nuclear weapons being made today that uses High Altitude Electro-Magnatic Pulse, that is able to shatter matter faster than light (iranium). The probable testing of this in the area where the plane happened to fly could explain its total disappearance, literally, disintegration of matter. No trace. Great message and impact in your writing.
