At 4 she had never flown And her mother, With nervous anticipation Tried to keep her both Still and occupied. She had socks… Which she showed me With the usual 4 yr old Abandon that has Nothing to do with Modesty. A coloring book, “Baby”, and back pack huddled in hushed tones at her side…as she asked again “are we flying yet?” I had to grin…. And as we began to move With ever increasing speed Down the runway, I leaned over , looked into big eyes, And whispered. Her mother was a bit confused As to why she was flapping her arms. I just grinned… And as we made the first banking turn, Gave back the thumbs up Flashed with big smile From a 4 yr old. |
