Boats afloat, <br /> across an ocean moat <br />Sailing away, <br />a tyrants torment <br /> With joyous rapture, <br />T'ward a life content. <br />rickety, leaking boat <br /> Let there be hope. <br /> <br />Boats of hope, <br /> human tragedy afloat <br />Sailing away, <br /> a homelands fear <br />On terrorful waves <br /> Closer now, sanctuary near. <br />listing, ailing boat, <br /> Let there be hope. <br /> <br />Boats without hope, <br /> Human misery, afloat <br />Sailing away, <br /> from a life content <br />With sorrow filled hearts. <br /> recapitulated, now their torment. <br />Scuttled, sinking boat, <br /> let there be hope. <br /> <br />Boats nae float, <br /> beneath an ocean moat <br />Sailing away, <br /> a savior of deception <br />An islands hopeless souls <br /> shattered dreams of redemption. <br />Fractured, sunken boat <br /> let there be hope. <br /> <br />Stop the boats afloat, <br /> across an ocean moat <br />Sailing t'ward, <br /> asylum signed veracious <br />People who pride, 'fair go ' <br />ah, but leaders are mendacious. <br />Rickety, Leaking Shattered Boat <br />please, let there be hope.<br /><br />Phil Charters<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/let-there-be-hope/
