Through a Pilot's Eyes


I wrote this for a Dear, Dear friend of mine, Dr. Morris Wortman. He's been extremely supportive of my writing and introduced me to Brenda J. Washington (Photographer Extraordinaire) She is a fantastic photographer and a wonderful person. You can Visit Brenda: 
to see more of her wonderful photography.
We teamed up together for our first project. I wrote the poem for Moe with Brenda's photo's in mind. Brenda and I  did some creative work with Rick at Scale 2: Display and Graphic Solutions
(visit:    http://www.scale2.com      and you can see all the other things he's done)                       
  Rick was instrumental with the design and outlay of the project. The finished size of the "poster" was about 20" X 30" .  He was so helpful and as you can see, the project came out Magnificent!! So here goes our first collaborative work.... 
For the "kid" in all of us..... Here's Through a Pilot's  Eyes (click on picture to enlarge)
With Love and Light,

Through A Pilot's Eyes
Days of possibilities
Fill up each morning sky
A question always asked
"I wonder just how high?"
Childhood dreams come flooding back
With each rising of the sun
Stretched out arms are my wings
I take off at a run
I soar over sidewalk cracks
My valleys, great, below
Jumping over rocks I see
Above mountain tops I go
Instead of arms outstretched back when
Today my wings are real
Yet when I fly my heart still beats
Like a kid again I feel
Over peaks and valleys
I really now do soar
Zooming through cloud figures
Like a child, I explore
Excitement fills my heart and soul
Of that there are no lies
Each day's a possibility
Through a Pilot's eyes
With Love and Appreciation
for a Dear Friend
