The boat

 




Boat carried the lovers

To the shore

They whispered among the flowers
And bushes

They took the small path
And vanished

Never to return
Boat waited and waited

Ripples from big house boats
Passing by,hit the small boat
Saying Come with us,
they would not return,

But the boat is waiting
Because, a day like this

One may return
If not both !

    1. Well done. Very clever. I removed last two sentences because Ines said i have a darker mind. I wrote - boat is there because one is returning , with ashes.

    1. We have done a walk near our house, by the river Lea. This boat is always there. So I wrote a poem.
