Safe Anchor

It had been a wild ride He'd been tossed about The sea swept the decks And the sails blown out Down below in the cabin Belongings were scattered Everything was wet - but Only one thing mattered Safe anchor was needed And he needed it fast He saw what he needed And went for the glass The crisis was saved It was liquid and warm Always remember - Any port in a storm
