Poet Analysis

First Line: I'M SENDING OUT A THOUSAND SHIPS UPON THE WORLD-WIDE SEA
Last Line: BUT THEY WILL ALL COME SAILING BACK AGAIN, TO ME, SOMETIME!

I'm sending out a thousand ships upon the world-wide sea,
Each one a tendril of my heart, a living part of me.
They seek an unfamiliar port, a strange uncharted clime,
But they will all come sailing back again, to me, sometime!
