An Airman's Grace

I found some realli great poetry about aviation and flight online. Some are really touching and well meaningful to say the least. So I might start putting up some poetry after every achievement I made in training. This is for my first unassisted landing.

AN AIRMAN GRACE

Lord of thunderhead and sky
Who place in man the will to fly
Who taught his hand speed, skill and grace
To soar beyond man's dwelling place
You shared with him the Eagle's view
The right to soar, as Eagles do
The right to call the clouds his home
And grateful, through your heavens roam
May all assembled here tonight
And all who love the thrill of flight
Recall with twofold gratitude
Your gift of Wings, Your gift of Food.

— Father John MacGillivary
