Derelicts at a country airport

                                           The Derelict

                What markings graced this noble steed, sleeping now amid the weed?
                Rotting in an earthen bunk and slowly turning into junk.
                Do aircraft dream of better days? Of bearing in with guns ablaze?
                And twisting in the morning haze? Or do they rest in peace?

                Proudly once you graced the sky. In mortal combat did you fly?
                To battle once against the Hun, perhaps to fight the Rising Sun?
                Did you once watch your brothers die, falling broken from the sky?
                Abandoned now, I wonder why. I hope you rest in peace.

                You slowly sink into the earth, who’s bauxite ore once gave you birth.
                Ashes to ashes and dust to dust. Aluminum to oxide and steel to rust.
                Do you listen for the beat of the drum? A call to battle that will never come?
                For you my friend, the war is won, I hope you rest in peace.

                It’s getting dark, but I hesitate. I must leave soon for it is late.
                I’ll leave you here to sit and wait. I’m sorry friend, it is your fate.
                Never more to turn and bank, no fuel will fill your rusting tanks.
                Alas my friend, I give you thanks. I hope you rest in peace.
