LIMERICK: A HIGH FLIER by JOHN BANISTER TABB

First Line: THERE ONCE WERE TWO BROTHERS NAMED WRIGHT
Last Line: "FOR HE SOARED UNTIL ""CLEAN OUT OF SIGHT."
Subject(s): WRIGHT, ORVILLE (1871-1948); WRIGHT, WILBUR (1867-1912);

There once were two brothers named Wright
Who went up in aerial flight;
But a poet I know
Who much higher did go,
For he soared until "clean out of sight."
