Man at Sea

Submitted by VCrowther4 on January 17, 2008 - 12:40.

Dark clouds filled the sky
The sea became rough
I try to control my little boat
The waves get bigger
The sky gets darker
Out of nowhere a shark appears
Then another, and another
There are now many sharks
To many to count
The seas are so rough
That every time my boat
Rocks a little water splashes in
Struggling against Mother Nature
I grow scared
And I wonder if I’ll
Ever make
It
