The joys of flying

A passenger jet


 with no room to spare,


I sit in a rare thing, a space


 with room for my knees,


My bum fits the seat 


with a just a little squeeze,


I was worried before, because I knew


the plane seats are tiny, 


more space in a zoo,


I had fingers and toes crossed, 


the seat belt would fit,


It did thank my guardian angel, I would have


felt like a twit,


Luckily the flight is only short,


A long haul in this,


 wouldn’t be sport,


My arm is wedged


 against the curve in the wall,


Understand how sardines feel,


 not having a ball,


A means to end but 


an uncomfortable lack,


Of reasonable comfort,


 give the designer the sack!


I am sat in a plane a few miles in the air,


We are descending,


 oh YES


 nearly there!
