Ha Ha! Bravo! This piece really shines and shows a gift with poetry when one can construct such a unique poem with a very difficult prompt. It's funny and paints a true picture for the reader. The rhyming is never strained and I like the way you have lined it up on the page. No editing needed in this reader's opinion.

I think a clay vessel is just for display, lol. I like the theme of your poem which is well written. The poem flows nicely and the rhyming is smooth. Good luck with the contest, good job with this write.

Great rhyming verse and I enjoyed your humor!
It is an energetic poem, with a jaunty pace which you keep right up, so it's moving along...like boats do.
Moonlight bay hmmm? That's where you'll go. That's a beautiful ending.
Your picture is just perfect

Hello Poet,
I really like the concept of this poem. It has a "fable" quality almost like the children's' story of the 'Three Little Pigs" with a more adult theme of staying afloat in troubled seas. I wonder if you considered a vessel made of "Stone"....maybe instead of paper. I like the vessel of clay (especially with the artwork) because it calls upon a more adaptable vessel but too heavy to really float (too serious, perhaps per your theme...at least as I interpret it. Good read; good rhythm but maybe stretching the rhyme with "ought ter" ?
Good Luck in the contest.

Thanks for your review and thoughts. I was not really happy with that rhyme either but the choice was really limited so I kept with the humor. . Have a great weekend.

This is quite the humorous take on this prompt and I think is likely to do very well. Save paper boats for the bathtub. Best wishes in the contest, my friend~Debbie

This, in the tradition of good nonsense verse, has more depth than might at first be apparent. We need to make wise choices if we are to keep ourselves afloat.

A very well-written poem. U agree a ship made of clay is not a very good idea. It will dissolve very quickly and leave you to swim to the destination or sink with it.

A very humorous and clever way to fulfill the requirements for the What is a clay vessel prompt contest. I particularly love the last stanza using teak to rhyme with leak really worked.

Most of my poems are in the humor category also. Lightheartedness seems to help in today's turmoil.
