HUN
2
Our little
biplanes stand at the edge of the ice lake
ready to
launch to hit the Luftwaffe, Germany’s elite.
Wind blows
down the valley whistling and singing
over our
fragile planes. A flare goes up
and we rush to
our planes, engines warmed up
by our trusty
mechanics. Start up,
taxi over ice,
bumpy ride but not too bad.
Just think a
hundred and thirty metres of water
under us in
the middle of our lake.
Power on, we
head for the sky,
not a bad idea
– ice lake runway.
When an enemy
target? Into the sky battle bound.
Clear blue
hangs over us so real it looks false.
Past valley,
over another, see the Hun!
Time for
battle in our biplane fighters.
