But not once did I really understand how I was up so high!

I wish I could say this was going to be my first airplane flight but that wouldn’t be true. I have traveled across the ocean from Sea to shining Blue. California to New York! Greece, Puerto Rico, and Hawaii! But not once did I really understand how I was up so high. 

I seen shapes, seas and even felt a little sky high. But not once did I really understand how I was up so high! My seat soft, cozy and a little narrow, making my body turn into an arrow. I didn’t want my body touching someone I didn’t know and making them feel a little WHOA!

I have always wished I could be free. Flying has always been apart of me. Not once did I really understand how I was up so high!

The light on top making it bright and night all was apart of my flight. I don't know where the pilots sit. Is it in the cockpit? For all I know the controls could just be holes. The airplanes insides could be made of coals.

But not once did I really understand how I was up so high.

I believe I should be able to learn how the controls on an airplane work, because I hate when the airplane jerks. I ride in an airplane all the time, but I have never learned  how or why the plane stays in a straight line. Maybe I’m blind and I can’t seem to find the time to learn how or why the airplane got so high.

 I think this opportunity would benefit me because next time I ride in a plane I will never wonder how a plane flies. This is why I believe I should be able to take a ride in your airplane up in the sky! 

Maybe I would learn how I was up so high.
