Columbia Haiku Contest
Here's my first entry to kick it off:
Futility
Fire in the sky
No warning or procedure
Heroes gone to rest
I'll post the best in a couple days as they trickle in.

COLUMBIA
Like snow, on green pines
Floating, flying to heaven:
Seven falling stars

Thanks, Bruce. Forgot I need a title.

A comet blazes
Funeral pyre of heroes
Eternal glory

Give us a title, Mark. I know, it's tough, because Bruce and I took the easy ones. But then, it's OK to repeat.

TOUCHED
Surly bonds slipped
The face of G-d, touched
This time on descent

Home
Sixteen minutes to home
So close yet so far away
Farwell good friends

More fitting this way:
TOUCHED
The face of G-d, touched
Surly bonds slipped
This time on descent

Always
I sat again struck
By the strength of our heroes
In orbit always

Astronauts' Gravestones
Bright star by daylight
The only real marker of
Our heroes' passing.

-- THE ENEMY --
Seven of our best,
Lives reaped by deadly friction,
Sworn foe of all life.

MOON LANDSCAPE
A sketch on paper
In the sky, burnt to ashes
of inspiration
Posted by Chester O'Shea at February 3, 2003 03:27 PM
EULOGY
Seven more perish,
Never to be forgotten,
And still the dream lives.

Gliding back from stars beyond
With "home" on their mind
