A Life Saving Whim

We are going to Corfu, what a great thing, Come on its booked, let’s go and buy everything. ‘Hang on,’ say’s hubby, 'In Corfu it rains a lot'. 'I want more sun, not the rain, we have already got.' But it’s booked we are ready one week to go, ‘I want to change it’ he says, 'so to Rhodes we will go.’ At that time we didn’t know what a crossroads that was, Instead of Corfu, we changed it because, My husband and I wanted more sun than the rain That was the point in changing our plane. Ok, we are at the airport, now watching and waiting The flight we were booked on was just to the runway taking. It stopped all of a sudden and smoke did appear, The poor people on board, they could not get out of her. We had changed our holiday on a whim because of rain Fifty Four people died in front of us on that plane. The plane we had booked but had changed at the end Took all of those lives but our prayers we did send. The crossroads had appeared we were lucky that day We had changed our course and our lives that we can say. But to the families of those that perished back then We have never forgotten and ours prayers still go out for them.
