Missed The Boat

Rozina

I missed the boat

Got to swim and float

Took just a minute to aid

A child and a maid

 

So will I get there

Seems so unfair

So near yet far

The sea's the bar

 

I want to see

The land of free

Feel earth and sand

With my own hand

 

I dream I hope

I know I'll cope

So new so clean

Everything so green

 

But my limbs are tired

Though my heart's so wired

One arm in front

One push one grunt

 

I'm slowing down

Head's a heavy crown

I think it's over

Not now not ever.....

    Determined fortitude, hope, and action, fulfills dreams, and can even create second chances. A boat missed is never the end! - A very necessary message. Thank you.

      Thank you.

      I think from the day we're born, the journey begins and never stops.
      The ship may sail without us, but that doesn't mean it gets there before us.

        True. Thank you.
