Happy Landings
I
am thinking of you tonight, Amelia Earhart
Because,
frankly, so many of us can’t stop thinking about you
And
I know you’re out there, somewhere,
Alive.
You
continue to tease us with
Pictures
of your shy smile
Your
pure countenance and
Little
bits of your aircraft left behind
In
the Pacific
Cosmetic
bottles and cases
“Typical
of the 1930’s” as careful reports say.
Come
on! Come out!
Walk
around any corner of any city in the U.S.A.
And
I’ll have a news crew there to record your arrival.
Come
back to us, First Lady of the Air.
We
need you.
