The Great Voyage

We are afloat on this endless sea of boredom

Slowly hunger comes upon us as the days float by

Our target has been the Galapagos Islands

But I don’t think we will ever make it

Soon after not realising it has been a few months

We approach the Galapagos Islands

Everybody hooting with joy

The enormous boat landed on the pale yellow sand 

With a little thud and rumble

We explored the island without haste

And found many peculiar new creatures

Such as the amazing giant tortoise

And land iguana

I studied the creatures carefully until my boat docked

I will always remember the great voyage on the H.M.S Beagle.
