Rubber Duckie.

Red, white and blue patterned
Just like a lone flag exploring the ocean
The voyager of our bath a hero of the waves,
CRASHING!
SPLASH!
Slowly surfing by.
Maneuvers like a snail
Bobs like a jellyfish
The size of a ship, the size of a sponge
But stuck in my grasp, it wheezes for company
Forever wearing a fixed smile
Unable to speak, feelings, trapped inside
Smooth as the tip of a dry nose.
On a journey that never ends
Always floating
Never sinking.
