Little Boat

Little boat upon the sea
Drifting past where eyes can see
Horizon's splash and then beyond
To another relative home
Water continent blue and deep
Sunlight lockets dancing keep
Call of seagulls overhead
Heat rains down, skin turns red
Salty seaweed aqua spray
Swimming creatures salute the day
Ocean swells caress the hull
Sails on sky like walking dresses full
O taste of water on lips, tongue and throat
With fair breezes fill the soul with hope
Beggar seals and friendly dolphins visit
Till waves and dreams carry us to a higher summit.
