The Ambassador

I can still hear the violins play for dinner and the candlight illuminate the room. Boy, she was a beauty. She was unsinkable. The unsinkable Titanic. I was only seventeen years old when I boarded the magnifigant ship, to America. I can still smell the new paint and the beautiful chandeliers. Most of all I can still remeber my Mom and Dad, dancing the night away. It would be the last time I ever saw my parents The ship jerked down all of a sudden. No one knew what was happening. My brother, John picked me up and started racing for the deck. The ship had hit an ice berg! John and I were in the first life boat. As they lowered us, I shouted my parents name, searching and looking for a glimps of their faces. We waited in the life boat for hours, until help arrived. I just kept picturing my parents dancing, little did I know, that memory would be my greatest treasure.
