SOL: An Airplane Ride

"Please put your seat backs in the upright position, and have your seat belt on and tray put up."
I lean back and stare out the window. My forehead pressed up against the cold glass. The engines get louder and louder. The plane starts to back up. We taxi for a couple of minutes before we slow finally reaching are runway. Then the engines roar louder than ever and we excel faster then before. Then I close my eyes and feel weightless for the briefest second. We fly through the air. I look down to the tiny specks below. Overall it is an exhilarating feeling.
