The Return of Skipper

Beneath the sky, a shadow flies, A figure strong with steady eyes. The winds do whisper, clouds grow still, For Skipper comes with iron will.

Gone so long, yet ever near, The seas of time could not bring fear. Through storms he sailed, through nights so dark, Guided by the North Star’s spark.

Now he returns, his heart aglow, A captain fierce, from winds that blow. His boots once lost to shores unknown, Now stride with grace on paths his own.

The harbor hums, the bells do chime, The village speaks in softened rhyme. The children cheer, the elders nod, For Skipper walks where legends trod.

He brings the tales of distant lands, Of desert winds and golden sands. Of mountains high and rivers deep, Of nights awake, where few could sleep.

But home is where his soul belongs, Among these hills, with humble songs. For Skipper’s heart, though wild and free, Finds peace beside the calming sea.

With every step, the earth is light, His eyes still glint with ocean’s sight. He’s home at last, the journey’s done, Yet knows his tale has just begun.
