Fly 8-Ing Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Fly 8-Ing



Figuratively waltzing in my head as I imagine flying a Cessna into atmospheres no one else can find.
Looping loops, enticing clouds to do the same.
Fly 8-ing through skies of blue, chasing clouds from within this body of imagination.
Floating above the ocean, watching it wave to me with frosty white arms, billowing pillow-like waves of ebbing and flowing tides.
Wiping tears of joy, overflowing from my soul as I continue to fly, hitting the sun and moon of my imagination with clouds pushing by.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
When I was nineteen years old, I took flying lessons and absolutely loved it. The first time up I took off and landed at Sky Harbor Airport, did right and left banks, stalled the engine - the plane fell (that's the only way to describe the feeling my stomach felt) then I turned it back on. Totally loved it - the instructor said I was a natural. Felt like I'd done it all my life! Flew to Deer Valley Airport and up to Prescott airport also. Had the time of my life! Learned how to fly a twin beach too! No fear!
