View From An Airplane's Window

Rating: 5.0


Oh, everything looked far
like tiny toy cars
Living things hurrying
Everything scurrying
And they appeared like doll's houses
or little women walking
in wee coats and teeny blouses
Even big men appeared smaller than boys
as everything seemed dwarfed to mobile toys
And tiny looked the trees
beside rivers and seas
Ah, and ooh the city of light
Dubai lightings so bright
A sea of lights at night! !
Ooh, I'll always love those plane window seats,
At times kind strangers of passengers
favor me with such treats.
Takeoffs and landings always afford us
a fine spectacular view
The scenery's poetic, the feel great
when the plane goes askew.
As God's world is reduced to miniature, to linear scale size
as we watch, as we rise, high up into the skies.

Your timing is so perfect, Poet Kamoonpury. Preparing to go on vacation in the near future. Your vivid imagery in the poem is a pure delight. And a motivator for me to get into high gear. Love the poem! Happy Holidays!

We will always appear small in God's sight with an illustration of an airplane window. We can see that we are small, weak creatures. That way we are aware that His power is great.

Fantastic imagery. It takes me back to one experience....being able to read street signs with the plane still not quite on the ground. Stellar verse..
