Steel Gull

















Large iron bird, made of steel. 
Fuel filled, locked and sealed.

Upon iron wings we soar above the clouds, 
travel over land and sea for miles. 

A wonderful trip you gave to me,
home is where I must be. 

I sit back and wait. 

Enough gadgets in front of me,
I imagine I am the co-pilot. 
Telling us where we are, 
where we are going and how long to get there.

Traveled so far, in this gullet of metal.
Heading for home with a pocket full of foreign change
and a mind full of sweet memories. 

We sore together, upon iron wings, 
a trip I will remember forever.

  3. Sweet! I love plane travel. (But please forgive me if I point out that you mean 'soar', not 'sore'. Hate to think of you hurting up there, lol.)

  5. Your gratitude expressed, not so subtle and sprinkled with an airy imagery.

    Pleasant travels.

    Cheers!

  7. Hi, I think your blog might be having browser compatibility issues.
    When I look at your blog site in Safari, it looks fine
    but when opening in Internet Explorer, it has some overlapping.
    I just wanted to give you a quick heads up! Other then that, very good blog!
