Prop Model

Prop Model

Settlements or colonies
Past the mountain ravine
In plains and meadows
Of rolling hills
Like French countryside
Homesteads
And windmills

Scarcely a tree
Or running river
Or life visibly
Walking in the country

Docile

Gliding through the plains
In a behemoth
Of a zeppelin

An airship’s
Droning buzz of propellers
A giant rolling in
The cloudless current skies

From the canyon towns
Perched in the walls
Of the grand ravine
Who’s bars and boardwalks
Were so lively

Props of an airship passed
The red ravine walls
And into green model plains
Of a delicate countryside

Serenely above
Cobblestone homes
And farmland tracts

Drifting with its
Skeletal frame beneath
Khaki tarp
With cars below
The balloon
To steer and house
Any crew

From the ravine town
Looking from on high
At quaint shingled roofs

Props buzzing
Above the models

Beautifully unspoiled countryside
