Ship That Sunk

By Navya Paul

Journey started quite 

A beautiful starry night

Ship left the dock

Stocked to the top

It had a bad reputation

Of sinking in the nation

Let bygones be bygone

Present is pleasant one

Party went on endlessly

Dancing and singing carelessly

Unaware to all lurked a storm

Thunder rumbled all along

Clouds rushed in to stay

The sky turned violent grey

Enlightened by past error

They screamed in terror

Ship hit the storm with a roar

Waged a futile war

Even precautionary measures taken

Couldn’t save the ship forsaken

Watched it sink helplessly

For once glad to watch silently

Rumors be told that if not that day

It would have sunk anyway

Fate of the ship seafaring

Sealed from beginning

Atleast it went down fighting

Worth the tragic ending
