The Mysterious ShipThere comes a messenger With secret tidings That only he can understand. A ship waits in the harbor For him to whom the message comes. The goal in sight, he Fearlessly sets sail Upon the same mysterious craft On which he came. The stately ship puts off to sea Assured the chart, The Captaincy the same, Of all the waters Of eternity. ___Amy Barron Leonard
