Ships

NafisaSB

Ships that sail in the sea of life

That can help avoid sorrow and strife

Are there to help, when you are adrift

For they are, indeed, Fortune’s gift

 

Friendship is one

That will never fail

For good friends

Will always rush to bail

 

Companionship is another

For which you should strive

Because all alone

It’s hard to survive

 

Hardships will come

Knocking at the door

Partnerships will then

Strengthen you to the core

 

And if all else fails

The anchor you need

Is worship of the Lord

Who will, in His care, keep

 

So sail smoothly

Through life’s stormy bays

And let Faith guide you

Through the difficult days

                      "Ships that sail in the sea of life," is a great metaphor. Then you point out three ships. Eventually, as ls always the case, we seek an anchor. You offer God as the answer. A most interesting poem that contains much wisdom. Enjoyed the read. - Phil A.

                        basically i have put in words what was in my heart that ultimately God is the person who will guide, protect and care for us. as we set sail in the sea of life..
