Free Cee a Dull Gull
A DULL GULL
So many people are intrepid sailors
I am but a sinking ship
Other people sale safely through stormy weather
As I watch my mainsail rip
So many sailors have such sturdy masts
Caressed by canvas and the wind’s tender kiss
I see them sail by with confidence aptly displayed
While my boat buckles and everything goes amiss
So many people head the helm toward paradise
A place were they throw anchor and shed the rancor of that blessed day
I see them standing tall at the wheel with pride as their guide
While I lack foresight and seem to do everything in a second best way
There are people who are intrepid sailors
As opposed to me who travels with an unholy hull
These people sail on while cutting through the wind like eagles
Alas, I am but a battered and grounded gull
