Send us all a small boat,
come row her into the harbour
afloat on a tranquil sea.
Send us a worldful of mercy,
arms open as flowerheads
raised up to the sun.
Send us eyes that see behind
the headlines and hate
and hearts to soothe it all away.
Send us all a small boat
that we might see ourselves
wearing desperation’s shoes.
Small Boat
"Send us all a small boat that we might see ourselves wearing desperation’s shoes"
