Question
Guest
Built with size that could not be matched
Made to traverse a great ponds path
Designed to be filled with a noble at first
But a ban caused that bubble to burst
Back and forth and back she flew
Each time her reputation and legacy grew
A stunning symbol of a rising power
But the joy wouldn't last too many hours
Humanity watched one fateful day
On the ground dead she now lay
