My Dream Ship

` I sail my ship on a shining sea, her sails unfurled in the wind a stiff breeze blows my hair and salt spray stings my skin My ship plows through waves with whitecaps, I set my course to the rising sun I see the flying fish sail by and watch the Dolphins run I stand on the deck as a Pirate King and I sail the bounding main I seek my fortune in a distant land, there I drop my anchor chain Treasures of gold and silver and rings on my hands, My ship hole filled with cargo, I sail her home again The sun rises on bright, clear morning I wake in disbelief What happened to my sailing ship? Did it sail with a thief?

Sometimes we wonder what happened to our enthusiasm and wonder for life as we age. I enjoyed reading its descriptive lines. Sara
