THE AIRPLANE by ANNETTE WYNNE

Last Line: YOU'D THINK PERHAPS 'TWOULD FIND A STAR TO LIGHT ON IN THE SKY.

I LIKE to see the airplane and hear the buzzing sound,
And see it settle like a bird quite safely on the ground;
I like to see it spread its wings just like a butterfly—
You'd think perhaps 'twould find a star to light on in the sky.
