Dedicated to the aviators of two major wars. <br /> <br />They flew across a fated sky <br />in wings of wood. <br />Never knowing if <br />they would fly another day. <br />Their life expectancy <br />was not very great <br />as they winged away at dawn <br />to start another day. <br />It was not only other warbirds <br />they had to worry about, <br />but ground forces <br />as they shot at them from below. <br />However, they are remembered <br />as brave and courageous men. <br />Who dared a fated sky <br />in their wings of wood. <br /> <br />18 March 2008<br /><br />David Harris<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-fated-sky/
