Dream Boat

As I set sail on the boat of dreams,
and ride upon the waves of confusion,
I hope to prove that with conflict
there is always a solution.
A tsunami of anger sweeps the sea
and tears at the sky of peace.
And shatters the dream boat and
slashes the wind,
And shows know mercy at the least.
Splashing as fright fills me within,
I make my way to shore.
I’m sad to say that my dream boat
may never sail no more.
Then gladness fills my inner mind
and I’m happy to be alive.
Although my many dreams are crushed
I’m lucky to have survived.
So hope within brightened my day
and gave me a brand new smile.
Soon I’ll build another dream boat
and happily sail awhile.
