If the wings travel faster than the fuselage,
And you are in a helicopter, that’s ok
However if you are in any other aircraft
It’s probably a very good time to pray...

motorcycle roars
penetrating the quiet night
shattering the silence

aircraft on the runway
jet engines scream before lift off
to the clouds above

on the waterfront
ocean liner calling her flock
- the loud blaring horn...

Once we were all so young,
Paper airplanes, so much fun,
Until I was a teacher of pupils,
Making aircraft, not such dills, 
So what did  I do?
Made a contest, with own rules,
Who could fly the best?
We put airplanes to the test,
All bit of learning fun,
Once they were all so young!...

It's been my good fortune
to have this close friend,
a possessor of license
for flying type things.

He owns his own aircraft 
for leaving the ground,
no wings fixed to lift us,
just blades spinning round.

A ride, two seat copter,
the feeling profound,
I feel as a bird must,
when flying around....

*
Donald Trump has declined to say
What his threats are worth on EBay
Iran did not buy
Trump had a good cry
And now has the Devil to pay 

*(Trump can't figure out why the
"wonderful aircraft" Americans deployed to
defeat the British during the Revolutionary 
War failed to intercept Iranian missiles)...

All day the big jets fly
Leaving trails in the sky
And turning Nature’s blue
Into a sad grey view.
Aircraft pollute the scene
With tax-free kerosene.

Fossil fuels are a curse
And problem getting worse.
Should we now change the rule
And tax that aircraft fuel?
See contrails in the sky.
All day the big jets fly....

Nature at its best

An aircraft in the  sky
Birds are flying nearby

The ocean is beautiful and close by
The surf has been high I wonder why

Nature is amazing the wildlife can be shy
Hunters may perceive to get a bulls-eye
Eagles may be the next pry

Nature is a loving place and glad to see it in the sky or nearby...

bagram airfield july 2010

hushed ether of morning
huddled guardian warriors, arms aligned
early call to prayer sounds the blood to chill
arrives the entry check point white linen under issued desert garb
a steely eyed airman quick witted and quicker with sidearm
all hell breaks loose and all age 30 years in one hot minute...

Dad Did Go to Sleep

Dad did go to sleep
He now lies in ocean deep
While I weep and weep.

My Dad was killed on Aircraft Carrier
Intrepid CNV-11 now in New York
harbor as a museum where a debate
was help. He is now buried in 200 feet
of water off of Sicily. I was 15 and had
3 sisters and two brothers when he died.

A Military Brat

Before have not been in mortal combat,
And yet still I once was a military brat;
To Mom's dismay,
Did enlist one day;
Wore an Air Force uniform with their hat.

Jim Horn

My dad was killed in an aircraft accident on
the Aircraft Carrier Intrepid CVN-11 now in
the New York harbor.

Veterans Day is coming soon....

Philter puppy love 
when rain drops on
Sweating hot body 
in dreaming Zone

Costing null feed
rocks strike silent groan
rebuff brings tornado
for hasty results

pleasing diets
make it rough
wearing Diamond
crazy aircraft, Philter puppy love....

Perseverance, ingenuity: hallmarks of great mind...
Examples which we Earthlings are expecting more to find.
As NASA's news now streams from Mars, where there is little air
And yet they're setting up the helicopter dispatched there.
With AIR as so essential for the flight of an AIRcraft
We'll see if JPL designers are clever - or just daft!...

A giant robot, a winged aircraft 
and a mechanical Red Skull
all combine as a super sleeper
designed to destroy the world

But Captain America would not
let them have their way
"Can the Sleeper be stopped?"
questions the Cap

He would land on the sleeper
and short circuit it's works
and it would crash into the ocean
saving the world one more time...

                                 God’s wrath

~ Footpath ~
                     ~ Glide path ~

Demon wing dipped bloodbath. God’s wrath seethes.

Gentle souls find footpath. Glide path breathes.

Glide path – the final path followed by an aircraft as it is landing,
thus our souls breathe as they alight in heaven....

My Ocean Wave

Sounds to me like my ocean wave,
Where sailors died and is their grave;
Over my dad's grave it does flow;
Was to us such a serious blow.

Near Sicily location is two miles off of;
200 feet below body of one we love;
Now rests there where he does reside,
And beloved country he bravely died.

All true. CPO Arthur F. Horn Aircraft 
Carrier Intrepid....

Let me fly so high
as an aircraft in the sky, 
I want to touch the clouds
then I will move round nd round
I will run then turn around . 

I don't needs pounds
I need only happiness
that i will be feeling while wearing that crown . 

Let me take breath in the
open air
please don't you say it's not fair
I don't care
as this time comes very rare
let me do this dare....

Like angels of death
they feared no evil
the best that ever flew.

So with wings at stake
downed aircraft thunder
across the skies of blue.

Pilots are proven mortal
when mishaps occur in flight
as falling planes, a ball of flames.

Leave skid marks in the sky..

.....Dedicated to Navy Pilots....

While asked by Nicolus --
What is the unbounded romance? 

I am stuck,
Yes, I am, indeed!

Many years since the question hovers like an aircraft overhead,
Many years of search could not respond;
Many a mile of space -- all stretching the age-line alone,
Not a response from my solitary being.

MY SOLITARY BEING!

Whiz! 

A solitude I absorb,
Hidden in an array of secret tunnel --
That solitude 

MY SOLITARY BEING
Is the answer....

The Last Flight Out
Written: by Miracle Man
September 2, 2021 

Aircraft disappeared into the Kabul sky,
minutes later Taliban flooded the street.
They painted themselves to be the good guy,
firing into the air celebrating our retreat.

This last flight ended the U.S.A.’s longest war,
now anguish exists for those left behind.
But our way of exit was not top drawer,
left to die were some who were with us aligned.

Suicide bombers what gives you the right to take away peoples lives.
Sadam Hussain, Bush and Blair.  U.k and U.S, your all unfair.

Woman, men, children dying.  Bombs, rifles and aircraft flying.
Friendly fire, t.v reporters.  The families waiting for loved ones to return.

How long will it go on? Revenge, power,lies and deceit.  When will it end.
Tell me what will it achieve. Peace and harmony love not war.

We don't need this evil anymore....

It would be bright and blue
My little device of divinity
I’d be that kid, the cool one
My bike would glide effortlessly
Like an aircraft 

I would have begged a little harder
As daddy saw it as dangerous
Maybe convince him of the joy
It brought with every pedal 

I longed to know its betrayal
As it drops me hard on the ground
Then tears roll down my face
And mother embraces me,
A lesson learned the hard way

If I had a bike
I would have smiled...
