The Journey
Getting there, no one talks much
about it,
That 8 hour Journey through the
cold air,
We were all passengers, sardines,
enduring.
But it could have been an act of
Surrender thru the Transcendent Air
So high above the Earth.
So close to the sun and moon, Icarus.
The Crew, they discourage you from
looking out,
So you gaze forbidden.
Journey's End.
Then there
appears a Land floating in the midst of all those hours of empty
pure waters.
Hawaii
Aloha
and Mahalo
I wonder, thinking ahead in time
one generation, imagining my youngest son now a father with a
five year old, flying to Hawaii for the first time-- a mere one
hour journey on the hypersonic X-33. What will his experience
be like, gliding in from the edges of outer space to the Honolulu
International Airport? What will be the spiritual dimension of
his journey?
