The Coughing Boat Poem by Jatie Apple

The Coughing Boat



I stand on the rail.
Watching the boats sail.
Waiting for one to take off.
But it just makes a sound
Like a big cough.
All the others speeding
Through the water.
Just when I get a tap
On the shoulder by my father.
He points to the coughing boat,
That is finally moving.
And the coughing sound
Goes away, and it now
Sounds very soothing.
