Broken Ship

Contributed by TheLostPuppet on Wednesday, 1st August 2007 @ 07:17:31 PM in AEST
Topic: oops



Proud to be aboard this ship
We sail through with this broken mast

All these winds seem to calm
The rain slowly stops
We fight our way through
Hold up our own through this storm

We lost some people
Got a few scrapes
Have a few broken parts
We can still hold up on our own
There’s still many more storms to cross
But we can repair ourselves and prepare ourselves
Along the way

Raging storms, banding together, seeing it through to
sunnier days ... hmmmm ... sounds like life, no?

The metaphor here is outstanding and the hope
floating within the words is heart warming. Truly.

Great post.

The idea is sound. I too like the meatphor.
I do have some trouble with the shifts back and forth between past and present. But I like the sense of pride and strength!

After reading your work, I can see why you didn't follow my piece. You are clearly more open. But the simplicity of Broken Ship is actually very peaceful. Cheers

I enjoyed this one.
I love the hope you give in the end.
Great job.
