FLY AWAY TODAY?
Four engines
Fuel-mega-drops spew
Off-and up we flew
What sweet memory
The view
Moon above
Sea below
Chaos reigned
Water's cold
Stomach of mine
Full of brine
Fuel-mega-drops spew
Off-and up we flew
What sweet memory

Terrific and what a hoot! Glad I'm not flying off anywhere right a way!
Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

I love to fly and this job loss has curtailed that so much. I can't wait to board that plane for New Orleans on Thursday!! Great poem.
your chair can be used as a flotation device! grab one quick! nice 160 steve...mine will be up in the morning...
even with the prospect of a possible crash - think we should fly anyway..
this reminds me of why i hate airplanes.
Wonderful picture and a great 160 :o)
WOW, this one has many facets. I read it over and over and I'm still not sure I can't find another facet the next time through!
Yikes! Hope you listened to the safety lecture!
I don't fly and your last stanza puts into words exactly why I don't fly. I will close my eyes and use your 160 to imagine myself up in the air, though, because in my imagination, I am the pilot. ::I have control issues:: :-D

Steveroni, you and I are "flying" today except my featured transporter does not crash. What is going on? Why the heavy heart. Talk to me! Tsup!
Well done. I can't think about those things (like how a 600,000-pound object can stay up in the air) when flying or I never would. Fly, I mean.
Now that's a story and a half in 160 - well done!
Airsick much?
Brined Shrimp = sea monkeys.
Brined primate = fish food?
You make plane crashes fun.
Nice 160.
Good grief. Did you get your peanuts before it went down?
thanks for the visit to my blog...

what a unique way of depicting a plane crash. well done!

You are safer than driving any day.

Happy landing

I think that chaos does reign on many airlines these days. I would rather go by horse and buggy.
oh, so sad...stick to the scooter! Thanks for stopping by yesterday! love hearing from you.
Oh dear Steveroni, the picture is lovely, a common view for me as I go on airplanes many times a month.
But your poem...is it an imagined story, or is it one that actually happened to you?
