Ship ahoy ! she sails into the harbor, masts glistening in the morning sun, her decks a wash with the promise of discovery, her groaning timbers telling tales of forbidden pleasures, rich is her cargo and she bows under weight of collected treasures, take me away oh merry band of sailors, take me to your lands of bounty, never again to return to these shores.

Ship of life
Ship ahoy ! she sails into the harbor, masts glistening in the morning sun, her decks a wash with the promise of discovery, her groaning timbers telling tales of forbidden pleasures, rich is her cargo and she bows under weight of collected treasures, take me away oh merry band of sailors, take me to your lands of bounty, never again to return to these shores.
I wrote this sometime ago, whilst looking at the tall ships moored in the harbor near to where I live.
