Voyager

[fledgist]

The voyage will depend on a mixed crew
who must learn to live and work as one,
to voyage home is all they wish to do.

Strange and uncanny things will come in view,
they'll grow into a family before they're done;
the voyage will depend on a mixed crew.

Love will bind them all before they're through
and they won't lose their spirit on the run --
to voyage home is all they wish to do.

Crises will come and be resolved on cue
yet from their purpose they will not be spun;
the voyage will depend on a mixed crew.

Carpers may speak nonsense till they're blue
but the bold captain duty will not shun;
to voyage home is all they wish to do.

Over the years their spirits will renew
in spite of threats from tractor beam or gun.
The voyage will depend on a mixed crew;
to voyage home is all they wish to do.
