The Crab and the Leaf

A crab and a leaf sailed out to sea.
Because of the current, the whole trip was free
They floated together, enjoyed the ride
With the leaf on the surface and the crab by his side.

The two are quite different, a leaf and a crab
One is pretty and pink
The other yellow like a cab.

Yet they rode the same current, gave each other space
And got where they were going, not even a race.

Just a crab and a leaf
Out for a float
Gave me something to photograph
And something to wrote.
