Nice poem.

Here's another one about flight:

Wright

His chin ascends a prow unto the quest
along the arc the eyes have sought to rest
upon a vision crawling from the West
a tiny thing as small against the sky
as I am on the land but for my eye
enlarged to such proportions by that sight
for knowing that a wing-ed thing has come
from all we knew of flight or since have done
to put a metal bird before the Sun.
