Everyone will see
This consuming fear
Will not conquer me

I stare straight ahead
Not daring to make a move
Wondering if at this moment
My flight will be smooth

Suddenly I am soaring high
Looking all around
Above me the sky
Below me the ground

The bay is straight ahead
Clouds billow past
I know I am in control
And given the wheel at last

To fly this plane myself
From here to there
Is a feeling of wonder
No one can compare

I am not afraid
Everyone will see
For I am soraing high
High as high can be [comments] => 4 [counter] => 187 [topic] => 48 [informant] => Leslie [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 3 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )

Soaring High

I am not afraid

Will not conquer me

Wondering if at this moment

Suddenly I am soaring high
Looking all around

Below me the ground

The bay is straight ahead
Clouds billow past
I know I am in control
And given the wheel at last

To fly this plane myself
From here to there
Is a feeling of wonder
No one can compare

I am not afraid
Everyone will see
For I am soraing high
High as high can be

Fair expression of emotion but not very original, actually quite conventional.

Although my poem is somewhat ambiguous I actually wrote about conquering my fear of flying by learning to fly airplanes.

I thought this poem was extremely well done.... and I thought it could have referred to overcoming any fear, not just a fear of flying.
Well done..
