I automatically think of a horrible storm swaying in the waves. I think of the Little Mermaid and Eric!

Sandalwood, Cedarwood & Sweet White Wine.
Stately Spanish Galleon,
Masefield, by Gail Bongalis
The ship tossed back and forth on the sea as it ragged in fury, and the crew ran, struggling, to get into position. Captain McDrew yelled out orders. But Perry, who was in the crows nest, had trouble hearing and tilted his head down as much of his neck would allow without falling. The only thing that reach his ear was the shrill cry of the wind and thunder in the distance.
Yet the captain, standing with his feet firmly planted, looked about him at his men; some were getting tossed across the deck and others gripped onto something steady. But the water crashed, leaped, and pounded against all sides; and the salty foam sprayed everyone in the face.

I was on a ship one very cold and dreary night. The stars glistened as I lie on my back and drifted in the dark blue sea. The sea swayed very gently, and I never knew relaxation before that night.

The boat floats gently on the sea. Unless, of course, it has a rocket-fuel-powered engine attached to it. Then I’m pretty sure it would go really fast.

There was a ship that was sailing out in the middle of nowhere in the ocean. It was surrounded by water. In that water there are many creatures that man has yet to discover. Thinking we only know about 1% of the species in the oceans of our own planet, and we have yet to reach the bottom of some of its areas, don’t you think we should finish exploring here on Earth before we go deeper into space? I don’t know about you, but I wouldn’t want to be on that ship.

Ship out. It’s not like you’re being forced out; you’re being shipped out. It’s not that we don’t want you here. It’s just that you need to go. Ship out. It’s time to move on. There are other places and there are other people. You’ll be fine where you’re going.

I am a sinking ship of terrible decisions. Was it Kundera who said we can only choose one path, and we don’t know which one is right until we have already chosen the wrong one? I love you and I just want to tell you. I am unbearably heavy.

I rode the ship down to the harbor where a boy was waiting for me. He was to be my husband though I had never met him. My parents said that his family was of a good name but I still had my qualms about the arrangement. I hoped I would be happy.

There is a ship I see on the horizon. It’s reflected in the deep navy waters that it floats upon. It’s coming to take me away somewhere warmer.

Ship can mean a sailing vessel or to send something to someone (as in shipping and handling charges) They probably got that meaning from it because they used to send stuff by boats a lot, but now we have planes too.

There was a ship on the sea and it carried a very lonely man. He crashed and took what he could of his ship to the mainland. First it was used as shelter, then later he used it to build a fire. Now there is no more ship, and the lonely man is wishing he were dead.

Ships are filled with nothing more than people, and their cargo has nothing to do with any of us. We don’t really see it, or know where it came from other than the fact that it could just possibly be there with all of these people walking around but never escaping into the sea where, deep below, we are never entirely sure of what will bite us. It could be that we’d drown before then, anyway.

My friend Tom has a tattoo of a ship on his arm, it makes me think of how the old days used to be, sneaking out of my house, drinking bottles full of mixed alcohol and taking trips to the highway diner. I wish I had the balls to be the way I used to be.

the ocean swelled with renewed vigor as the storm washed wave after wave over the side of the ship. The captain fought for control of wheel, struggling in vain to maintain course. On the deck, men scrambled to find something to hold onto or risk being washed overboard.

The waters shook as the man lept off of the boat into the icy water. His eyes were blurred and the water was blackness. He didn’t know where he was, what he would do. He had to escape somehow, to shore. To safety.

It was a flying dutchman’s home that flew over my house with the sounds that usually accompanied the planes that flew just a bit too low. Through my bedroom window, I saw it in the backyard.

It sails, and when it does everything else in the horizon looks so insignificant. You realize as watch it disappear that you’re trapped, doomed to a watery grave. The waves engulf you, and you know now that there is no more.

Ships floating, bobbing like foam on the surface of the water. Frothing & bubbling with the excitement of passengers who wait for the chance of a new life. Shipping their hopes to a new world

This friendship thing is pretty funny. You let go of it one second because you’re not careful, and years later it comes back to you as if you’ve never lost it in the first place. Or perhaps I am just the lucky one, lucky enough to be remembered and forgiven for something I do not deserve. A million thank yous cannot express my gratefulness.

the ship was of course to begin with. it didnt have the time to turn around and the people on board didnt have the time to become frantic. it all just played out like a bad movie. the end came too fast.
Jasmin Perry
the ship sailed out to sea. The woman and her child stood on the shore. One tear fell down her face. Goodbye she whispered as her hair blew into her face. I love you forever and nevermore. She knew she would never see him again. She was alone now. To raise a child on her own in a cruel world without forgiveness or mercy.
Monica MUlter
The ship disappears into the horizon and brings with her the sailors and their passion. They loaded their dreams and said goodbye to their homes to journey with her into the deepest blue.

A huge pirate ship vanish through the misty sky. It was huge. The sails were rotten and falling apart. Tears and stains were ever present. It was an errie sight. No sounds could be heard. Just the small swoosh of the wind.
