Aviator Poems | Examples

Traffic Safety

Calling all vehicular drivers in this land,
All travelers’ safety is in your hands;
Wear seatbelt, don’t race, over speed or over-take,
You’re not an aviator nor pilot for passengers’ sake;
While driving, avoid drinking and using electronic device
Obey all traffic signals, have license—take my advice.

Wild Birds Revisited; Same Soup, Different Spoon

A scarlet-throated hummingbird, betrayed,
commences the annual rite of packing his nest,
in response to whimsical winds' pirouette
and the capricious moods of weather's ballet.

Distant friends once conspired in sunbeam pursuits,
beak-dipping in nectar teased from blossoms' allure,
whispers of the breeze tutoring flight's debut.

Without forewarning, save the whispers of history,
the wind turned, concealing its chilly shoulder,
snow's fragrance on its breath, contradicting denials.

Taking only essentials, nestled close to his breast,
an eccentric twig, a wisp of newborn down for nostalgia,
the unborn blueprints of a portico, a dream deferred.

Perched on a bare branch at dawn, the crimson aviator bids adieu,
soaring on a desolate breath, burden lightened,
leaving his heart with the capricious whimsy of sylphs.

When Doves Cry

I stand before you gathered here, honored to pay tribute today,
To the unknown soldier, who typifies all soldiers come what may.

She is a daughter, a mother, a sister, He is a son, a father, a brother,
Willing to step up to protect us all, A soldier, a sailor, aviator or other,

We owe a debt that can never be repaid. No matter how each did roam,
Brave young men and women, many broken, some didn’t come home
. 
Life altering actions. The hardship they endured, the horror they saw.
Let us bow our heads and pray there’ll be an end soon, to every war.

True even those that made it home, broken minds heard the doves cry.
They were not properly looked after, some homeless, decided to die.

World leaders and religious heads, join us now, stop ordering them to go.
We are humans put on earth to love one another; this you should know.

If its so important to enlist violence you leaders, step in and have a go.
Take guns, tanks, missiles and land mines, we will all watch the show.

My tribute to the unknown soldier is at an end. May he rest in peace.
And may we all acknowledge the need for all war and fighting to cease.

Rocket Cat

Rocket cat vip courages ~ Cat crewed flight via SpaceX 

Elon’s starship launched           
top gun catnip will travel~
blues sky flying high 

Missing you my fearless feline, safely may you return
Wishing that your Mission Impossible will soon adjourn
On this Memorial Day we salute cat ladies and lasses’
Eveready as you don your Tom Cruise aviator glasses

Summer Breeze

I can dress up like Jimmy Buffett
in a straw hat
with an Androsia Print shirt
Aviator sunglasses on my eyes
a pair of flip flops on my feet
and some steel drums by my side
chanting staccato calypso rhymes
watching the tourists dance in the sun
being whisked away by my voice
like a summer breeze
flowing through a wind chime
on the VIP Beach

Air Crash After Full Cash

The plane had after three hours crashed,
With the scene after four hours flashed;
The people who had been airlifted
Without a lone exception gifted:
Three hundred and sixty passengers,
Thirty six of them God's Messengers,
A thirty - six year - old senator
Involved with a female aviator,
A twelve - year - old school child monitor 
And his doting father janitor
Farmer owner of Navigator
Still enthused about The Gladiator...

And the Nasty Crash picked them all up,
As though filled up their life's fateful Rude Cup
A Plane Crash in Max's mind a deep gash,
Because passengers had paid full cash!

Feathery, I Shall Be

From a mountain's crested height
I'm free of dread without fright,
since I grew wings to take flight,
'cross oceans I soar.

Aviator, flying high,
gravity, I can defy.
Great crashing waves I descry
o'er the ocean's shore.

Swiftly, I can flit and glide
like ebb and flow of the tide.
Never shall I be denied
hearing oceans roar.

A nest of twigs is my home
where I can view waves of foam.
Never again shall I roam
from oceans I adore.

Land lubbing is not for me.
My heart and soul agree.
Feathery, I choose to be,
I've oceans to explore.

I shall beseech, if I must,
to remain with my wings trussed.
Flying serves my wanderlust
for oceans and more.

Do Not Read Aloud

When the Isle of Man Master Baitor
Got a gig on an Irish freighter
To Scotland they sailed
Until they were hailed 
When seamen splashed an aviator

In the Great Beyond

Travelling through space with wings open wide  
the eagle takes to flight in the evening gloaming 
Tenebrosity of dark, coatings thick as matter 
clinging to the tips of His feathered rise,   
the aviator soars,
freely unencumbered by night

The Biker

I loved riding my
bike as a child. It offered
me a new world view.

I was fast and free.
Then we put cards in the spokes,
and I motorcycled.

I cut corners like
a politician and wore
aviator glasses...

I could have passed my
driving test, last year - but nooo
- for once - I was chill.

I'm sure the trauma
of my laziness will scar
me, but - maybe not.

Sometimes I'm
SO resilient that people
think me uncaring.

Warning: People may
be far more emotional
than they might appear

Brilliance and Madness

Brilliance and Madness

Howard Robard Hughes
Famously rich recluse
Dreams led him to the lap of luxury
Followed by nightmarish mysophobic OCD

Rich playboy aviator Howard Hughes
With movie starlets kept himself amused
Dated Katherine Hepburn
Bette Davis took her turn
And still more, which kept the tabloids confused

Born Howard Robard Hughes to a rich family
With English, Welsh and French Huguenot ancestry
Enjoyed a successful multi-faceted business career
But aviation and aerospace were his favorite frontier

Frightful Forecast

Weather forecast so frightful, so scary
   It removes from this season the 'merry'

Howling winds and blowing snowdrifts
   Force your car off the edge of a cliff

Visibility of less than half and inch
   Makes an experienced aviator flinch 

700 flights canceled in and out of O'Hare
   Frustrated travelers curse, cuss and swear

On bridges and overpasses icy conditions
   Blackening every commuter's disposition

Travel advisories constantly warn of the worst
   For those on the road in this accursed cloudburst

Oh, that I'd been created as a great big black bear
   ~ So I could tune all this out -- fast asleep in my lair

Carolyn Devonshire and Entire

Carolyn Devonshire and Entire

Much time two women had spent;
Problems possessed by immigrant;
Good looking lasses,
In aviator glasses,
And they never had to live in a tent.

Jim Horn

About Homeland Security loser and
Fox News Female Reporter who wore
aviator glasses.

Always interesting writing poems about
current affairs and news.

Dimensions

This poem is in conjunction with the video. 


A spell to cast you in
Watch me!
I the queen jester,
SteamPunk aviator,
Cybor goth,
Travel these dimensions That I control 
walking through and bursting in to life, 
Lifting my spirit and soul,
Laughing and enjoying these worlds,
Looking for that something,
Casting that spell to cast you in,
In the end I take your soul
