This is the story of “Barnacle Boat”
For many years he had stayed afloat
Keeping the fishermen safe and dry
So the villagers had lots of fish to fry
But…..over time Barnacle became old and creaky
And the fishermen said “Barnacle, you’re just too leaky!”
“No longer can you keep us safe and dry, so the villagers have their fish to fry.”
And poor old Barnacle, he started to cry.
“What shall I do now?” he wailed “what will become of me?”
When a little voice whispered, “but Barnacle, you’re free!”
“yes!” Barnacle shouted out with glee, “you’re right Charlie Crab, I can just be me!”
“I can explore now and have some fun”
“Well” said Charlie, “our adventure has begun”
So off they sailed into the setting sun.
Charlie and Barnacle their story had begun…..
