The theme I selected today is Boats. Many people have devoted their lives to explore the world. Christopher Columbus, half a millennium ago discovered America, Portuguese explorer Vasco da Gama was the first one to discovered a sea route to India and the list is never ending. Man didn't just stop with Earth. After exploring all of Earth we sent a rocket to explore the moon, Neil Armstrong the famous American astronaut was the first one to step on the moon. All of this shows that as a human we are always curious of what is beyond our sight.

Boats were among the first means of transportation. Even the Holy Bible contains a story about The Noah's ark. Genesis 7:1 says :- Then the LORD said to Noah, "Enter the ark, you and all your household, for you alone I have seen to be righteous before Me in this time. For people who don't know the story, in short, God spares Noah, his family, and a remnant of all the world's animals from a world-engulfing flood by asking Noah to build a Ark and getting inside it before the flood.

Boats now a days serve for many purpose like fishing, travelling (cruses), cargo carriages, luxury(yacht) and sometimes a romantic ride. In this post I have created artistic pictures of different types of boats. I would like to share a small poetry that i came across, Hope you like it.

You are a sailor
Drift way from the harbor
Pull up the anchor
That binds you down
Set sail towards the horizon
Take off the blindfold
And hoist the sail
Let the wind be your guide
Sun and the Moon your compass
Steering through uncharted waters
Sometimes calm weather
Or, inclement weather, rocking your ship
Tackling the deep waters with alacrity
Unfathomable depths, yet the ship sails
Cutting through the waters
The saline water, which is a part of you
Seagulls guide you towards the shore
Anchoring at the preferred destination
Every grain of sand cushions your feet
Welcoming you to the island of bliss
Cut off from the mainland
Yet, helping you connect with yourself
Now it’s time to unwind
And join the party after a successful voyage
Ready to set sail for another expedition
As a sailor, cruise till the end
