Seat 11a: Where Love Survived The Crash Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Poet's note: I shared this poem not just as a writer, but as someone carrying a heart full of grief, admiration and love. The recent Indian air crash shook something deep in me. So many lives were lost, but somehow, the person in Seat 11A survived. Hearing this is not the first time someone in that seat number has survived a crash makes 11A strike a chord. It reminded me of someone special in my life. Someone who, like 11A, stayed through the wrecks and didn’t let go. This poem is my way of honouring the miracle of survival, both in the plane and in the heart. It's for those who came into our lives and somehow stayed through every crash.
