The Sinking BoatA Poem by Aerielle LouiseSelfishness leads to selflessness
Blue sky falls, the white clouds float
Flowers, birds, trees, all has its beauty Behind the story of a sinking boat is a man, a child and a lady The three are on their way to find a journey They row the boat using the paddle As the rain began to become stormy the began to think twaddle "What if the boat sink or what if we fall? I'm so afraid I do not want to die" He said as he worries about almost all "I must wish upon the sky" "What's wrong about falling down? I'll stand up and be alright" he heard from a lady wearing gown Whom he just met last night "The difference between land and ocean is the difference of night and day" Said the man sitting in the portion "When the boat sing there's no other way" "And if we fall, we cannot stand on the water We may drown or be eaten by the fishes We're in the mid of the ocean remember? And reality doesn't grant wishes" Not long after, the waters began entering the boat The only way to save the boat from sinking Is to lessen the weight of the boat Big waves came, boat continued shaking The child, worried and crying, jumped into the waters To save the child, the man jumped out also The lady paddled away, herself is only that matters The two cried help as the lady acted like foe "I'm sorry guys, can't help you out. I do not want to die" Said the lady as the wind became strong and wild But the, a yacht came driven by a strange guy "Please help us! Please! Or just save this child" The strange guy helped the child and the man Unfortunately, the waves swallowed the boat with the lady the guy, the man and the child was about to help the woman But the lady is too far from them as it is windy and rainy The story behind the sinking boat is the lesson from it that float Know that the lady's selfishness Only led her to selflessness The child who doesn't thought of his self Has been saved and helped So as the man with a kind, brave behavior Both lead them having their Savior --*
