Little Sail Boat

Little Sail Boat

A Poem by realmwriter
"

The day my Duaghter was born, saved my life. The day my Daughter was born turned me from a boy, To a Man!

"

  Little sail boat in the ocean so vast.

How is it that you have found yourself here in this temped see?

How have you come to be cat about by these angry waves breaking on your bow?

 

 

  Little sail boat in the desert so parched.

How have you come here to this arid place?

What kind of tempest cast you amung these unforgiving beams of sun?

 

 

  Little sail boat, where has your sail gone?

How will you get back to the ocean with no wind to carry you home?

What has happend to you little sail boat?

 

 

  Little sail boat looked up forlornly and said.

I am but a small and humble vessle and I have come a long way to meet you.

I might ask you the same questions you have posed to me.

 

 

  Little sail boat, I am but a humble traveler, wishing to be relieved of this arid place.

I know not how you or I came to be here but I would surely have died for not meeting you.

 

  Humble traveler, I am neer death myself, but if you would help me find my sail then maybe we can find water across this temped place. Little sail boat, It will be my pleasure to be your eyes, but my vision is nearly gone for I am in need of water to drink.

 

 

  Humble traveler, I do believe that if you look under me You will find a few drops of water to relieve your thirst.

 

 

  So the humble traveler, with all his remaining strength lifted the little sail boat and set him upon his keel, and to both of thier shock and surprise the ocean sprang forth from under little sail boat and both were home once again.

 

   

   LITTLE SAIL BOAT, LITTLE SAIL BOAT, WHAT A GLORIOUS DAY, Humble Traveler screamed against the fury of the wind and the driving of the rain.  Humble Traveler, you have saved me from that terrible place, thank you so much humble traveler, Thank You So Much.

 

 

  So Humble Traveler and Little Sail Boat remained the best of friends and never found the desert again!

 

  Humble Traveler was saved that day more than little sail boat could ever know.

Thank You, Little Sail Boat, Thank You!

So sweet! At first it was very provoking as I thought about the symbolizim but then you just let the story play out gradually. Wonderful.
