Hope, Moon, Airplane
The following piece consists of several haikus, including: "A Hope of Man", "Airplane", and "Moon". Each follows the traditional 5,7,5 syllable structure of a haiku and speaks to the wonder and beauty of the heavens - as well as to the machines which, for a time, call them home.
A Hope of Man
Rocketing skyward,
a great new age lifts itself.
Fly rockets of hope!
Moon
Lovely, lonely Moon,
shining light to grateful earth.
Staying bright a while?
Airplane
Like a dove, the plane
casts its magical shadows
over lands below.
Sun
Radiant above,
softly gleaming - an expanse
lit with rays of hope.
Rocket Engine
Massive with power -
majestic, cohesive, lifts
upwards from our earth.
Satellite
Made to soar above
higher than the earth or clouds,
as only a light.
Galaxy
Beyond reach or ken,
stars glimmer and share stories.
Come, tell us your tales
