The BLue Angel

I wrote this and "fly angel fly' on 23 April, 2007


There was a man who loved to fly
he loved to travel through the sky
he was called a Blue Angel
indeed he was
It was always what he wanted to be called
In his blue and gold mount
he flew with grace
he reached out and touched God's face
his BLue and gold mount
not a servant so faithful he found
The Great Admiral had a higher calling
to fly away and be at rest
to land on the gold runway
to the hanger in the sky
where the soul of man will never die.
His blue and gold hornet
never again shall fly
for her pilot so sadly died
She died as well
ever the loyal one
making it clear that "kojak"
was the only pilot she'll need.
She will have her place of honor.
Her pilot too shall never again
be with us
when he was flying that April day
he never knew death came his way
but the Great Admiral
called him home
and that was the last mile he
ever flown.
He flew away to his goal
to be with God forevermore!
