CP-122 Neptune
The Lockheed P-2 Neptune, a wondrous sight.
A maritime patrol, it's duty to keep,
Searching for submarines, in waters deep.
The Neptune, a legend that would be known soon.
With wings outstretched, it takes to the air,
A guardian of the seas, with a watchful stare.
But some were converted, a daring trek.
With JATO assist, they launched from the sea,
Stop-gap bombers, where would they be?
The Neptune, a symbol, on every side.
Armed forces embraced it, a trusted friend,
Serving with honor, until the end.
The Lockheed P-2 Neptune, brave and bold.
A nursery rhyme to remember its flight,
A tribute to a plane, shining in the light.
