Genesis Ship

Noah commissioned a wee dove as his ocean scout It ventured out three times seeking sprigs of life on the third try it brought back hope to mankind. I would have chosen an albatross for the task with its great wingspan suited for sea voyages It could have done the deed in half the time. Perhaps the dove was more efficient and intelligent maybe the albatross lacked focus and discipline been tempted by the sirens of fog and froth. Did it feel spited in the shadow of the Genesis ship. Who am I to question a blessed man who built an arc and refreshened mankind.
