This Is Your Pilot Speaking

This Is Your Pilot Speaking
 Song about a Poor Airline* 
by Angela Lansbury 

 “This is your pilot, 
I’m speaking to say 
You’re welcome aboard 
Our Happy Airlines 
Don’t be afraid on runway nor skyway 

Films show life’s worse 
Stuck down Chilean mines* 

 Copyright Angela Lansbury 2016 I typed this out with line breaks but the blog post system has kindly corrected it thinking I inserted line breaks by accident. If I knew HTML (which is not difficult) I might be able to re-load with proper line breaks. To remind myself, and inform you, dear reader, the HTML (hyper text mark up language?) is simple. It inserts ordinary English language instructions such as insert paragraph or insert line break followed inside a special bracket to show that is not part of the text but a layout instruction. I shall do that next time.

 However, even poets have lives to live apart from writing and reading poetry. So I must go away. I'll try to fix this next time I write a post.
