Touchdown
they say life is not your destination,
but rather life is the journey along the way.
the view of angels from 35,000 feet
holds marvels for certain
but I like to think that sometimes
the touchdown on terra firma,
is just a bit more comforting
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Stop & Go
a series of hurry up & wait moments
peppered with sleep deprivation
cannot quell the hopeful tingle
felt on the last leg of the journey
just before arrival

Who knows what life holds inside death?
I know your poems are good, though.
i do so hope life is only the journey.. the older i get,, the more disappointed i become in the possibility that this is all there is....
I like the sense of anticipation in the second part. Paisley's right--you do good work :)
