Create Orbiter haikus and other forms of Orbiter related poetry.

I'll start with a really terrible one.

Gravity is cruel.
But necessary for life.
High Delta-V.

Now another bad one.

With each new release.
Vessels need be recompiled.
Joy for the user.

How about another one?

The Luna-3 probe.
First to see the Moon's far side.
We must :hail::probe:
 
I went to the moon
I just got a CTD
I made a ragetoon

That was quite possibly the worst Haiku ever. Remind me how someone as left brained as me got into honors English?
 
Playing amongst stars
Will take all of your sweet time
RTFM, please.
 
"Developer song"

I'm a Orbiteer and I'm OK,
I code all night and sleep all day
To put the thrusters, as they should be
I mess with API and spacecraft three

I code main thursters and RCS
My craft now can do an orbital dance
With either side of I mount booster set
To reach the stars as fast I can get.

Nice cockpit mesh and the payload bay
Some bits of code that were left astray
I put some beacons and landing strobe
I'm near relase time, I hail The Probe
 
Heres a few.
---------------------------
I went to the moon.
Acting like a bafoon.
I hit the dark side.
Picked a fight with ironhide.
---------------------------
Hark, my DGIV tis out of fuel.
Hark, i must eject.
Hark, the hole is a suspect.
Hark, theres nothing more to expect.
Hark, the engineers disrepect.
Hark, the sounds can be heard.
Hark, from very afar.
Hark, the burning of the hull.
Hark, to the burning of memories.
Hark, and to the burning of safety.
Hark, this ends my story.
Hark, tis no time to despair.
-------------------------------------------

Oh DG oh DG why sit there all day?
Oh DG oh DG your hull is in dis-repair.
Oh DG oh DG your paintjob is wearing away.
Oh DG oh DG how could this have happened?
Oh DG oh DG the DGIV took your occupation.
Oh DG oh DG abandon are the to rot in peace.
Oh DG oh DG maybe again some day...
Oh DG oh DG maybe ill fly you again some day...
---------------------------------------------------
Roses are red violets are blue.
The thrusters on my DGIV are too.
The ground is green the sky is blue.
So is my paintjob on the DGIV too.
Water is blue space is black.
So is my nextdoor neighbours cadillac.
XD

DG how i look upon you in such pain. :(
DG how your names taken in such vain :salute:
DG how youve been caused much pain.
DG how nothing will remain the same.
DG your the only thing keeping orbiter sane.
DG from simple to complex your its rolemodel.
DG may you rest in peace in your watery grave.
DG from where i crashed you into the watery grave.
DG lay there abandoned rusted, cold, destroyed.
DG please remember one thing.
DG i love you as i do the night and day.
DG ill never forget such fun times we flyed.

From the orbit of pluto, to the heat of the sun, to the craters of mercury, and on the rings of saturn. To the gassy atmosphere of jupiter, to the red serenity of mars.
The the blue planet of uranus, and the peacefull atmosphere of venus, to the big blue giant, neptune. But the most fun memory i have is the one we spent together on earth. Flying to base to base, having fun along the way, participating in airshows the best ive ever had, but the most fun of all was at home, day by day waking up to see you calmly asleep in the hangar, fuel you up for the morning and wash you most of the day. Then at night when the skies are calm, we would take off, to have some fun, dancing in the moonlit sky, was fun all and all, the fact that i will miss you will be seen trully through and through, now i leave you today with these words, to keep our friendship forever strong, ever past out lives. Good luck and god speed, orbitnauts. -Slice N Splice

I lol'd so much I fell off my chair and bounced into orbit around the Sun.

Reentry, Reentry,
the foulest of times,
which took from Columbia,
all her crew's lives.

Wow I actually made a poem. :lol:

I actually almost cried from that. Now I feel all guilty for letting my DG rot in the hangar while flying my DGIV around the solar system.
 
Here's my modest contribution, in haiku form.

New features are cool,
But when will they be released?
Maybe next Tuesday.
 
A haiku. Just a warning: the ending is quite sad, and I cried while writing it. Only the emotionally strong should read ahead.

Tuesday Tuesday, day
Tuesday, Tuesday Tuesda-ay!
Tuesday. Tuesday? Nay.

I haven't decided what to name it yet, any suggestions?
 
Eheheheh...I wrote one about the XR2 a long time ago, I guess it's inevitable with the creation of this thread...

I played with the spacing a lot, hence the need for PDF, but here's plaintext for those who can't be bothered:
I am exhilarated.
As she approaches her upper limits,
I throttle back.
Her frame,
is light
as paper, yet
she can take the heat.

We’ve passed the stratosphere
and we’re not stopping.
She struggles to breathe,
as the air
grows thin.

Her screech is deafening
It’s almost over

We’re not on Earth
anymore.

I ease back,
and we are there.

It is silent.


It’s a beautiful thing,

The union

of man

and machine.

It even comes with a picture:
