I sailed as captain on a paper boat
Around a bend, along a wave
Adn through the grasses glide
A water skipper saw my path
Adn quickly skipped aside.
the water rolled me onward
near a dragon fly
I stayed very quiet
As I sailed by.
I chased a little minnow
Around a big gray rock,
And watched the growoing ripples
When the rain began to drop.
My boat sailed on without me.
It slipped on throught he rain.
But, tomorrow I'll make another
And find Adventure again.
