Legend

 Legend

Through storm and gale, I soared above,

My craft a symbol of hope and love.

A pilot born to brave the skies,

My engine fails, flickers and dies.

My wings of steel, tremble and roll,

Mayday, mayday, I lost control.

Then Fate had in store a twist, a cruel surprise,

Both engines flamed out in the skies.

With steely nerves, I fought the gale,

To keep my craft from a tragic tale.

In this dire hour, above the sea,

My strength and will, for all to see.

With water's touch, a daring move,

I aimed to ditch, my heart did approve.

A graceful descent, a splash so grand,

On ocean waves, my fate in hand.

And as I touched the salty brine,

A hero born, in the nick of time.

Rescuing passengers, my purpose clear,

Facing fear, I held them near.

In the face of trials, I did prevail,

A Pilot's valor, in an epic tale.
