- USS Midway’s Legacy
Beneath the Californian sun she lies,
A stalwart giant of the seas,
The USS Midway, where history sighs,
Echoing tales on the gentle breeze.
Naval history in every rivet and plate,
A warship museum of iron might,
From WWII to modern fate,
She sailed through day and darkest night.
An aircraft carrier, grand and bold,
Her deck a stage for roaring jets,
Naval aviation’s stories told,
In whispered tones and bold vignettes.
She braved the Pacific’s treacherous waves,
A symbol of strength, undeterred,
With every mission, she always saves,
The memories, our hearts have heard.
Now anchored as a museum ship,
In San Diego’s welcoming bay,
Her decks host stories that rarely slip,
From the past to this very day.
Heroes walked her hallowed halls,
Men of courage, strength, and pride,
Their legacy within her calls,
Where maritime heritage does abide.
USS Midway, forevermore,
A testament to battles won,
In every story, every lore,
Her spirit lives on with the setting sun.
This poem captures the essence and legacy of the USS Midway, emphasizing its historical significance and transformation into a museum ship.
