In times past her paint sparkled and her gear hung perfectly in place. The pride and joy of her captain, and the protector of her crew. If this old boat could talk what tales could she tell? Would she tell of the many days on the Pacific Ocean when storms suddenly rolled in out of no where? Would she tell how hard she strained against the surge of the waves bursting over her bow, while her captain stood firmly at her helm with clenched jaw and tight knuckles, confidient she would pull them through to safe harbor once again? The excitement and pride she must have felt as the fish rolled over her sides, knowing the bounty of the catch provided those hard earned dollars that would feed the families waiting at home.
Yet, today she lists quietly on her side, supported by the mud in the estuary, abandoned and forgotten. Life has it's cycles, and newer boats have taken her place at the docks now. Her tales held tightly in each board and rusting cleat.
