A Boy and His Dreams

There once was a boy named Paul Revees
who wanted to sail all of the deep, blue seas.

It is all he talked about most of the time
be it at home, or in school and even in the
lunch line.

He dreamed of it in the night and knew someday
to the sea he would take flight.

Paul finished school and a shipbuilder he became
and off to sea he went when the ship was named.

He sailed the seas and through the years he kept notes,
as he lived happily ever after on his ship named,
The Happy Boat.

It takes a special person to spend life on the sea. I enjoyed this one.
