The Ship of Hopes and Dreams
The Ship of dreams is what,
We believe to be seen in our minds.
Looking out into the bay, watching,
The ocean, as it guides,
Our ship to her.
The rumor.
The myth.
The legend.
Praying to be united with the one,
Who welcomes us to a new,
Land with a new beginning.
The horn sounds alerting us to,
Take notice that our ship is approaching.
Then I look up to see the lady,
Who carries the torch and,
Holds the Declaration of Independence.
She welcomes us to a new land,
With hope, freedom and opportunity.
We have the anticipation of a,
New life as we thank,
This lady named Liberty.
