The boy on the boat
Man to be ascendant
Bleakness of the background
Echoes your future
The boat on the sea
Sails on the tides and eddies
Pushed towards arid destiny
Too soon, your sea becomes a desert
From your sunken ship
My life’s boat sets forth
A new vessel of your making
Man to be ascendant
Bleakness of the background
Echoes your future
The boat on the sea
Sails on the tides and eddies
Pushed towards arid destiny
Too soon, your sea becomes a desert
From your sunken ship
My life’s boat sets forth
A new vessel of your making
My hand at the tiller
I am now the boy on the boat
The photo is a picture of my late father when he was quite young
