Reverie

A hungry young sailor

paddled his worn out raft

searching for dry land

came across with a young bard with his guitar

on a floating log waiting for luck.

Saved, he helped the hungry sailor

paddle in search for dry land.

Minutes later found themselves

on still waters, sign of good luck.

Dry lands ahead..

There sat a lonely barber

by the river bank

The bard asked the barber

what made his heart sank

and he explained how

he lost his good scissors

on a bet with his bad luck.

I don't mind giving you these

the hungry sailor said

not just one one

but two new scissors

the barber jumped

I could give you free haircut anytime!

the barber exclaimed

but before that' the sailor replied

he's hungry' the bard said

too bad, if it's food, I don't have'

the barber feeling really sorry

with a sigh they fell silent

oh I know someone who can ease our worries!

stated the barber sounding resilient

he told them about the fantastic cook

his foods taste good as it looks

So they started to search for the cook

but where to? Asked the sailor in a shook.

He's near the woods, in a sunflower field

the barber answered as they left the raft and began to walk

How I wish I could follow them, but I can't

For I'm asleep, I'm just asleep...
