Definition: A person who steers a ship, a helmsman.
Alright class, settle down and let’s take a look!
That’s a very good definition you’ve read, it’s true,
Of a “pilot,” steering ships – for me and for you!
But "pilot" has another meaning, shining bright,
Especially when we talk of taking flight.
Think of an airplane soaring through the blue,
A
pilot
guides its journey, swift and new.
They read the instruments, they watch the skies,
And steer that metal bird before your eyes!
So “steers a ship” is part of what it means,
But "a person who flies," is where the story gleans.
It’s about controlling something moving fast,
A pilot's skill and knowledge meant to last!
