The Flying Casket
amidst my indelible impressions
comes an era of remembrence
that shall go down in history
I recall the flight of an airship
traveling abroad from Europe
to the United States
with ninety seven aboard
passangers crews and news media
were all awaiting for its safe arrival
as newsreel coverage was filming
the attempt docking of this flight it
turned into a blazing yellow and red fireball
within one minute
thirthy five lives had
parished
In Memory Of
Those Lost On The
Hindenburg
{Deutsche Luftschiff Zeppelin #129}
