Turbulence 2

In the air, a warning Lets us know what to expect. Sit and fasten seatbelts! Says the captain’s voice, direct. We close our eyes or take a breath And try our best to chill, While making sure our coffee Or tomato juice won’t spill. But whether we are calm or not We have to wait it out, For it’s a part of what An airplane flight is all about. It’s just too bad in life we’re not Provided with a clue That turbulence is on the way So we’ll know what to do. Instead, we’re ambushed every time And rarely are we ready, For with no seat belts we proceed Unstable and unsteady. In times of anguish we could keep Anxiety in line If only we could be forewarned And see a seatbelt sign.
