CONTACT, by IO SLOAN THERME First Line: Astride the wings of flying birds mechanic Last Line: And some fly on to eternity. Subject(s): Aviation & Aviators | ||||||||
Astride the wings of flying birds mechanic Wild spirits ride; Over the clouds of billowy waves titanic Swiftly they glide. And all around Down to the ground Go the static steeds of harnessed sound, Each a message from the outward bound; As some course over an uncharted sea, And some fly on to eternity. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE LEARNERS by RANDALL JARRELL AERO-LAUGHTER by ROBERT MCALMON CONSUMMATION by ROBERT MCALMON NAVY FIELD by WILLIAM MEREDITH READING MY POEMS FROM WORLD WAR II by WILLIAM MEREDITH LONELY EAGLES by MARILYN NELSON |
