Sailing on an adventure trip
Through waters that in tempers vary
From calm blue to tempestuous, fiery
I, the captain, am learning perpetually
To sail my ship such that, eventually
When my time on earth is over
I’ve found for my ship an anchor
Until then I keep my ship afloat
Storms may rock, not sink my boat
Tricks of sailing each day I learn
Savor experiences on each sojourn
Rendezvous with people as I travel
Mysteries of mankind I unravel
Thus I sail through the deep blue sea
Facing life’s vagaries on my journey.
