Best Pilots Poems

One of the greatest mysteries in the history of man
Why kamikaze pilots wore helmets, they didn't give a damn
For the Emperor, they cried
They were prepared to die
Unimaginable to us but for the glory of Japan...

As death waves her hand
My plane kisses the heavens
If only she knew...

As I sit in my seat
My life is complete

As I look down to the ground
My target I have not yet found
Nor will it be, at least not by me

Because for me at least
In my ejector seat
That doesn't matter

I get in quick
Drop the bombs
Release the missiles
Stick...

Aircrafts 
Pilots are spied from the moment they sit down to fly an airplane 
and till they land the plane. This must be a heavy psychological 
burden and for some pilots intolerable, so they plot a way to avoid 
all Seeing Eye, these constant observations....

Back in the times
When airplanes were new
And small engines unreliable
Circa 1930’s
Pilots took their lives in their hands
Their sense of adventure was keen
Risking life for duty
Delivering precious mail across continents
Linking cultures faraway and exotic
Flying over oceans, mountains and deserts
Vast stretches of land as far as the...

I have an important message
for man's best friend
humming like rolling wheels at 90
incandescent like a hubcap overhead
listen to this you highway palm readers
the pressure in this tire
is anatomically incorrect
and at four atmospheres
ALERT!  ALERT!
all radar units report your locI and foci
on the plan-it planet,
space never...

At one time, we flew.
Nothing could stop our momentum.
There was a path forged in the time 
that we made for each other.
You stepped in and stopped my 
madness. Atleast for a short time.
You gave me peace.
For this period of love, we both knew
it's beauty but...

One of the mysteries in the history of man
Kamikaze pilots wearing helmets, I don't understand
To live and to die
For the Emperor, they cry
Unimaginable to us but for the glory of Japan...

Starting a new plan a project or a new business is very similar to taking a flight.
Once your plane gets off the ground, its smooth sailing through boundless skies graceful as a kite.
When preparing a plan for a flight, the captain always requests that we...

A gentle droning fills the officers’ club
Here come the wasps, someone says
A silence fills where conversations were
Some of the officers walk to the windows
To gawk at the new WASPS...

The Aces are coming the female ducklings said. There’s Dash!
Duckling adoration toward these valiant flyers with panache’.
One glided in on half a fighter jet that had a huge gash.
They entered the French restaurant and made a great splash!

They are heroes! The French ducklings yelled out...

Shiden-Kai
After the battle
Fishing the plane
From the water
No fighter pilot
Where is he?
Gone far away
Where warriors go
Shiden-Kai pilot
One of six
Lost that day
B-Sans or Hellcats
All the same
Way back '45
Old fading times
Not even memories
Don't forget them
Of all sides
Silence ......

I've a spare Red Horse beer.
I'd give it to a Mustang pilot called Fredericks.
We can talk planes and drink.
I'd tell him how we looked for your location.
Sunny 8 impacted Castleshaw Moor.
Don't you know my friend and I looked thrice.
We never found your warplane.
Though I found...

missing in action but deniable
missing over the ocean…...
