The Pilot's of the Sky
On December 17th, 1903,
Wilbur and Orville Wright.
Two brothers from Dayton, Ohio
For 12 seconds successfully gave flight.
Those 12 seconds brought them fame,
The plane landed 120 feet away.
A photographer preserved the moment,
As they flew four times that day.
The final flight covered 852 feet,
Over the Kitty Hawk, North Carolina dunes.
The Wright brothers changed the world,
With a homemade airplane that afternoon.
The age of flight had begun,
As they both took turns that day to fly.
Two bicycles makers from Dayton, Ohio
Achieved to be the pilot’s of the sky.
