When I looked at the boat, I got a bit emotional and reflected on the life in general.....
The Old Boat
Towering waves, I twirled with grace,
Each fierce storm, a fleeting embrace,
Sang melody to the gulls, carefree,
Flirted along fishes silver and glee.
To wind’s might, my sails aligned,
Salt and Sun in journey intertwined,
Forces then I braved, as a child’s play,
Those memories now softly sway.
Old and abandoned is today’s reality,
Time is relentless in its truth or cruelty,
To kings and paupers, its march unkind,
In its silent hands, all destinies entwined.
