My Boat

My boat A small boat moving through choppy water. Prompt from "Grief" by Raymond Carver Some sail in yachts Some relax on cruise ships Some transport fruit on cargo ships Some are fishing in trawlers Some refugees seek asylum Some toil with nuclear reactors Some wear military uniforms Some honeymoon in new lands. A few are in Boaty Mcboatface. My little rowing boat has sprung a leak. We are not all in the same boat But we are on same sea. 30 June 2022 Sponsor Julia Ward Contest Name SAILING

Every individual experience is a bit different, but seas are indeed pretty choppy these days. Well penned.
