A Dance Of The Boat And Sea
A boat rocks on the sea— A dance she knows, Oh so well, The passengers aboard, Mirror her dance, Celebrating their journey Over the seas. And she? She revels— Finds purpose amongst them. They see water, But she sees home, The sea— Her friend— A relation No human could comprehend— One beyond time— And space. She holds many treasures— One only need ask— The right questions— Of what might pass— Of what they might earn. She has seen many— Far too many— Rise and fall— Their capability clouded, And mind blinded. As volatile— As them— The waves crash— Against her hull— Pit in her heart— She closes her eyes— Decision made. Her hull breaks— Water cascades in— She does not fight— She welcomes— Slipping softly Down— Down, Finally— Home.
