Day by day I float my paper boats.....

Tagore's Poem-Day by day I float my paper boats

Day by day I float my paper boats one by one down the running

stream.

In big black letters I write my name on them and the name of

the village where I live.

I
hope that someone in some strange land will find them and

know who I am.

I load my little boats with shiuli flower from our garden, and

hope that these blooms of the dawn will be carried safely to land

in the night.

I launch my paper boats and look up into the sky and see the

little clouds setting thee white bulging sails.

I know not what playmate of mine in the sky sends them down

the air to race with my boats!

When night comes I bury my face in my arms and dream that my

paper boats float on and on under the midnight stars.

The fairies of sleep are sailing in them, and the lading is

their baskets full of dreams.

this poem is a story about a boy being abused at some as he tries to send a message out with the paper boats.

this poem reminds my childhood days on my mind.i luv this poem when im studying school this poem is part of my studys...my mam explained this poem very interesting.........and i also make paper boats ...when rain showerig showering....after rain....or still raining...me &my bro's make paper boats ...and "katti padava"[telugu] means this is calling our native one of the regional languages in India [advanced modal in paperboats] this boat have a knife (bottom of the paer boat) this is amazing experience..we can't forget those dayz..

         This is a really emotive time of when life seemed to have spare time, wanting to be known by others, the excitement of people around the world receiving his several many paper boats, finding out his information almost connects them together.
