This limerick and the following 2 haiku were Inspired by a conversation with several flight attendants on an SWA flight from PHX to SAT.
There once was a flight attendant/
who men thought was heaven sent*./
My phone request got a “maybe”/
because she wants to have babies,/
and can’t see that’s where I went.
OR
*resplendent.
