Skies Transformed

Title: Skies Transformed

In skies once filled with soaring grace,
A tempest brews in time and space.
Alaska Airlines makes a tough decree,
Grounding flights where wild whispers flee.

Wings of steel, majestic in flight,
Now veiled in uncertainty’s blight.
Passengers waiting with bated breath,
As safety’s song sways between life and death.

Each day’s dawn brings a wave of change,
As cancellations cascade, re-arrange.
The rhythm altered, the pace now rare,
Impacted souls pause, suspended in air.

Whispers echo, “stay grounded, stay still,”
As flight plans stall against their will.
A fleet silenced within the vast expanse,
Yet dreams of travel will not fade nor glance.

Boeing’s Max 9, once pride and might,
Now shrouded in shadows, stepping from light.
Safety’s dance calls for steadfast care,
Until skies reopen, free from despair.

In Alaska’s soul, resilience thrives,
United spirits soaring in hives.
Though flights suspended in the skies,
Hopes ascend, eagerly waiting to rise.
