I am a voyager,

My journey is similar to a 'voyage,' It is long yet fulfilling. Sailing upon the silent deep waters, Sometimes waters can be thrilling. The stillness of the waters keeps me calm, But my boat moves slowly upon these deep waters. The appalling thing is when the waters are rugged and rough, My boat seems to move very quick. I have learned that when the tides are high, I need to be happy, For the journey continues, In calm and storm alike, I find my way. My journey is like a 'voyage,' There are no street signs or road mapping, But I know where I am going, I'm not scared. These turbulences and long waves make my journey very quick, Along the way, these tides would throw a couple of fish into my boat. I am a voyager, Navigating life's ever-changing seas, With courage in my heart and a steady hand on the helm.
