Flying High

Flying in the great blue sky,
Like a grinning fool.
Flying fast, and flying high;
Didn't check the fuel.

hahaha. I had seen this a while back and did not even realize at the time that I was looking at one of the 7/5 trochee entries. Anyway, I thought it looked familiar and I still love it! Congratulations.

flying high like a fool, this quatrain's so COOL Hey, I have a question for ya. You said we could do triolet or sonnet in your contest but also it needs to be 20 lines or more. Do you mean I would need to do three triolet if I went that route then? Not just one? Please let me know. Would like to give your contest a try.
