Oh’
Look,
Down there..
She looked out,
From the plane window..
Most breathtaking sight, seen ever…
Clouds, Plains, hills, mountains, and humans,
All looked so tiny..
Slowly plane,
Descends..
View,
Grows!

i love to see the world from above...there's a beautiful song by reinhard mey... über den wolken - above the clouds, freedom must be endless... and i also love the descending into reality again... being part of her again... nice use of the form...smiles
ReplyDeletethanks Claudia :-)
Deletedef one of the cool things about riding a plane....seeing the world from def a new perspective....pools and such look pretty cool too....
ReplyDeleteyep...only it might be a mighty lake looking like a cool swimming pool out there =)) thanks Brian!
DeleteGetting the birds-eye view is one of the best things about flying. You've done a nice job of using the form to capture that.
ReplyDeletethanks so much @rumoursofrhyme
DeleteLove the fact that this is a dog's vantage point -- fresh!
ReplyDeleteit was her first flight, and she was mesmerized :-)) thanks @maryazilberberg
DeleteI love the perspective of riding the plane - everything so small then suddenly growing ~ Good to see you ~
ReplyDeletethanks Grace and good to see you too.
DeleteThe view through an airplane window is always amazing even if it is just the clouds. You can see so much into them.
ReplyDeleteWell-penned. :-)
thanks a lot @howanxious
DeleteIt is so nice to be able to watch the view as a plane lands, isn't it? This poem expresses it perfectly.....how the view is at first small and the becomes large. Very nice writing indeed.
ReplyDeletethanks a lot Mary! i love to watch plane landings.
DeleteI’ve tried to comment on your blog several times, and right when I’m in the middle of it, something happens and it’s wiped away. For this one, I had to write in word, copy and paste. Then it won’t let me comment and I have to come back. I just thought you’d want to know, because I would. Anyway, I always enjoy visiting.
ReplyDeletehmmm..i dunno what error you are facing, anyways glad you could post this time :-)
DeleteThe shape of a wing, and the view from the window. Great write and take on the prompt.
ReplyDeletethanks for reading :-)

ReplyDeletethanks so much @Susan,...am glad you liked it.
Deleteand I can't help but ownder what she thought of what she saw
ReplyDeleteshe was too awed to think, i guess ;-)
DeleteIt's interesting to think what sense a dog can make of it (especially with windows blocking outside scents) - fun piece.
ReplyDeleteI had fun writing it too...had to juggle words to bring it in shape :-) Thanks Rowan.
DeleteA bird's view is very beautiful. When the plane was about to touch Port Blair, I saw the most beautiful scene of the sea and small islands.
ReplyDeleteyes..its quite enthralling!
DeleteWhen I imagine the scenic beauty described in this poem, it is breathtaking !!!!

DeleteThe world is so tiny when viewed from the heavens. Loved your take.
ReplyDeleteAnna :o]
thank you... :-) yeh...world is still visible, we are the ones who look tiny :p
DeleteThe world is a beautiful sight from up above the clouds, especially without the clouds and at night. the night flights are my favorite, every single time it never fails to amaze me.
ReplyDeletePages off Life
not sure what view you'd get on a late night flight, would love to try it though...all my flights have been day ones so far.
Deleteप्रभावी !!!
ReplyDeleteशुभकामना
आर्यावर्त
Shukriya! :-)
DeleteThis is so cute =) I find it rather exciting the view from the airplane window and a little scary
ReplyDeletethanks!!! oh yes...scary too...especially when the pilot announces that the plane is going thru' 'turbulence'
DeleteWow, a view from the top is really breathtaking and I so much envy all those who get an opportunity to sky dive and more :)
