The Little Boat-小船

The Little Boat

A little boat sailed across the mild-likesea.

Suddenly, a huge rainstorm struck! Thesparkling rain lit up the smoky sky and the greysilvery clouds but the water was still as black as petroleum. The boat bobbedup and down in the water.

The rainstorm finally stopped. It wasalready midnight. The stars looked down at the lonely boat like diamonds in thesky. The white sail swayed silently in the soft wind.

He sailed into an area of water filled withtrash. A monkey jumped onto the boat. Immediately, another darker colored monkey bounced onto the boat. Thelittle boat wobbled. The monkeys jumped up and down on the boat and they bothfell into the water.

In the morning, the little boat sailedbetween islands that had grass that looked like sharppearly arrows pointing up. He could smell the odor of fresh leaves andsalt. He could hear the deers neighing. He could see the silhouette of them.          

In a flash, a flock of crows scattered onto the boat. The boat’s sail got dragged away a bit and looked like a man’sface.

Later, the boat travelled through greenmountains. He stopped at the shore of a small island. A soldier came and sat inthe hull of the boat and rowed it into a NaviBase but suddenly hundreds of soldiers shot atthe boat. The sail and the hull both got shot.

The next day, thunderstorm struck. The sailwas almost gone. Suddenly, a school of flying fish swarmed up and a huge fishfin appeared and an enormous fish tail smashed the boat and it got mostlydamaged.

The little boat realized that he came intothe same route as he started. He travelled through the mountain again. The ownerof the mountains tied a piece of cloth onto the wooden stick of the sail.

Then he sailed through the Navi Base andthe soldiers used their flag and ropes to fix the sail and the hull. The itsybitsy boat got almost fixed.

After, he went back to the home of themonkeys. The monkeys were snatching a sign. They saw the boat andquickly stuck the sign onto the hull.

Lastly, a flock of white pigeons held astring and tied up the sail. The little boat finally became just as new as before.
