Once I had an opportunity
To ride in a Black Hawk
Helicopter for about two
Hours. I was strapped in
A seat next to an open
Door. The view was really
Spectacular. We were
Looking for equipment
Lost in trees by the troops.
I could have done this all
Day!
Look up in the sky and
You will see the contrail
Of a high-flying jet. It
Could be a military
Aircraft or a commercial
Airliner. They fly so high
You can’t hear them, and
The view from that high
Is breathtaking. Flying
Over the clouds is an
Experience that is
Unforgettable.
Fellow passenger
Be easy on yourself
And me also
So we can live
Whatever time
Is left for us
Each day a gift
We do not take for
Granted
