Y..... Row Poem by Aufie Zophy

Y..... Row

Rating: 5.0


Sitting at the river bed
I prayed to God, I said
Please help me, show the way
Show me the light of day

Then in front of me
a small boat passed
a man was rowing

I suddenly realised
God gave already the water
God gave already the boat
But I had to row

You may drag a Horse to water, but he's much too heavy to throw in!
