Stand By...

Stand by...
This is your operations manager speaking.
The next sound you hear,
Will be your sighing!
No tears to cry will come...
The landing ahead of us,
Will leave a few of you quite stunned.
Probably some may be left undone!
The shake up felt...
Will be experienced by everyone.
So,
Stand by.
An abrupt adjustment in attitude,
May startle.
And be considered less than fun!

This wide-eyed jaw dropping stopper...
Brings realities that will not be shunned!
Stand by...
The attitude indicator,
Has just locked onto a new horizon!
