Floating Away

One Last Push..

Ali Canary
The softly rolling tide brought a little boat to you
It kissed up against you, but
Every time the boat gently nudged
You pushed it away
Just as gently.
It would swirl, confused,
Regathering,
But drawn back again by the sweet rolling waves.
One time the little boat came back to you,
You pushed it away again
A little farther this time.
A new current caught the little boat
And it floated away.
