Kissing The Earth

Kissing The Earth

  Gliding over bits of angel glory,
    Downward as the mountain falls away.
      A compelling force is part of the story,
        Adding speed is what it starts to say!

            As I depart the frozen wave; I float,
              Then the force will not be denied.
                My heart rises into my throat,
                  Now horizontal; from what I just tried!

                      If you want to fly like the angels,
                        Using their glory as turf.
                          You better have good landing angles,
           Or plan on kissing the earth!

Is this about ski jumping? When they go shooting down that huge icy slope and launching into the air to try and do the furthest jump? Because that is exactly what I saw in my head as I read this. Thanks for sharing x

That was really cool and so clever. You are so good at that. Reading your poetry has given me another whole other outlook on words and the different arragements that we put them into.

Jim  simply a superb read that flows and so so cleverly creative in your writing and presentation.
And your final payoff line is so poetically and revealingly to die for.
A great fun read but so intelligently written.
Thanks for the heads up on this one Jim for I would have missed it and while reaching this page I noticed another among so many that caught my eye about a B 17 Flying Fortress and its crew and will read that now.
