Love Chosen
A vessel of beauty on the surface
yet void of mechanical means
will take one no where on this journey of life
and becomes but an anchor.
They say you do not choose who you fall in love with. And although this may well be true,
we most certainly do choose what we fall in love with.
I will choose the not so pretty tugboat which is strong of character
over the luxurious yacht with hollow hull

Many choose the latter, hoping to fill it with substance, only to find it leaks like a sieve.
Thanks for the visit, wise comment and kind words.

So very true, to find the one you want
is much better than trying to build the one you need.
Thank You for your visit and wise words.

No, this is not a poem, more like prose, just some words conveying a message, using normal writing. It is good that you ask, because how else does anyone learn. Keep up the good work!

Some choose a life raft on a cruise ship

I like the last two lines, and they express your meaning so well that I don't think you need the rest. It's strong enough (in character!) to stand alone.
Don't you think A_t ?

Perhaps you are correct. But in some cases, redundancy reinforces the message. Thanks for the visit and comment

Thank you for the visit, compliment and RL inclusion. I do seem to use a lot of sea type metaphors, wonder why? :-)
