Jan 2015
She boarded the plane
Excitement in the air
She couldn’t wait to get in the sky
And get out of here!

The beach, the sun, the sand, the fun
Her smile beamed at everyone

Up, up, up and away
The plane started down the runway

It was sunny and bright
Not a cloud in sight
A good day to fly
By day or by night

She sat back in her seat
And started to doze
Next stop, Los Cabos

Two hours in, the plane started to rumble
Her empty stomach began to tumble
“Turbulence” they said, no need to fear
All she knew was she needed a beer

The plane seemed to be getting tossed all around
She looked out the window
She could see no ground

There was nothing below
Except the blue angry sea
All she could think, “What’s going to happen to me!”

The passengers were nervous, the tension was high
Flight attendants were scurrying by

The next thing she knew, the wing was on fire
The plane was going down
This was the end of the wire

She said a quick prayer
And then closed her eyes
She felt nothing on impact
She never did cry
