The World Beneath My Wings
Apr. 5th, 2005 06:32 am0630 5 Apr 05. Over Iran. Listening on the audio channel to that great old song:
See the pyramids along the Nile,
Watch the sun rise on a tropic isle,
Just remember, darling, all the while
You belong to me.
Fly the ocean in a silver plane
See the jungle when it’s wet with rain.
Just remember, till you’re home again
You belong to me.
And I’m over peaks streaked with the last snow of a Persian winter. Off to the right is Teheran and beyond that a range of mighty mountains in their own world of white. One huge cone dominates all else. A spectacular land.
