Empty Raft On River
An empty raft adrift on the stream
An empty raft adrift on the stream
Drifting through time like a forgotten dream
A vessel once full of hopes and desires
Now a mere shell, with nothing to inspire
The water carries it along its way
A solitary figure in the light of day
No oars to steer, no destination in sight
Just the gentle current, leading it right
The banks on either side pass on by
As the raft floats beneath a clear blue sky
The sun beats down on its empty hull
As it glides along, quiet and still
Perhaps it once held a joyous crew
Laughing and paddling, enjoying the view
But now it is just a memory of the past
Drifting away, fading fast
And yet there is something calming and serene
About this lonely raft, so peaceful and clean
It reminds us to let go and let life take control
To trust in the journey and not the goal
So let it float, let it be free
A symbol of life's uncertainty
For even in its emptiness, it holds a certain grace
As it glides down the river, at a steady pace.
