The Ship

[rescuecatsrule]

Another I wrote as a child:

The Ship


The ship is setting sail at last
I have been waiting for this day
So long, so long
Our ship is sailing off today


Our ship is sailing today
The wind is fanning the sail now
We are leaving the land behind
With all our other ships in tow.


We are sailing, sailing, sailing
Sailing away to new lands
Leaving the old behind
For the boat to get new hands
