Oh no. Those were the words I uttered right after finishing reading this piece. I was engaged and invested. Why could he not come out on top? I was rooting for him.

Your poem was well put together, and I enjoyed the rhyming and the subject matter. I felt I was there as a pilot in the triplane over France, and I could almost feel the bullet in my face and the plane spiraling down. What a wonderful poem!

Comment from Maria Millsaps
This excellent poem commemorates Manfred von Richthofen, a fighter pilot in WWI. I wonder what motivated you to write the poem? The poem relives the last fearful moments of the Red Baron. The art of dogfighting takes a different view in modern days. Thanks for sharing.

Wow this reminds me of something I saw on the history channel one time. It was about the adrenaline of being up in the sky like that. Crazy to think this could have actually occurred

This is a very well written poem about a historical figure in the history of war. I enjoyed very much listening to it as it moves along very well when it is read aloud. May you have a wonderful day and may God bless you with continued wonderful writing. Patricia

hello Dear,
thank you for such a thrilling sensational poem: i suppose you're the hero pilot in the story :) it must have been so amazing, i wanted to fly on a F16 when i saw a video of the airforce, but i realised its only one seat and that you need a license for this lol i love sensations too, but could only fly on Boeings ( i have visited 15 countries in total )
Many thanks, i liked your poem,
Best wishes,
Sarah

Comment from Sanku
This is superbly crafted ; the way you described the aerial fight so precisely is remarkable. The irregular meter is suited for this theme and you have even used rhymes!

You know, of course, that I'm picturing the episode of Charlie Brown in which Snoopy reenacts this! Good intensity throughout. And cool picture to accompany the poem.

Comment from Robert Zimmerman
You did very well telling the story of the Red Baron. You used an irregular meter, but again, your descriptive narrative was quite good detailing the appearance and the action of the air battle. Well done.
