　　Throughout the Depression (经济萧条) years，my brothers，sisters and I often heard our granny say，"One of these days，my ship is coming in."Of course Granny's ship was just a dream-her escape from the reality of being poor most of her life.But to us it was very real.

　　Our family got by with the barest (最少) of necessities.There rarely was enough left over for special desires.So if we wished for other things，we told Granny about them，and she would plan for them to be aboard her ship.

　　At times we kids worried greatly as to how the ship was going to arrive at Granny's house in the deep pine woods of East Texas，miles from any waterway.One day when Granny was sitting with us on her front porch，we asked her how she expected the ship to come.Shifting in her rocking chair，she expected the ship to come.Shifting in her rocking chair，she pointed to the beautiful clouds floating in the bright blue sky.

　　"Why，children，" she explained，"Granny's ship has big beautiful sails.Some day it will rise up on clouds like those，and come floating right up to the front door."

　　As we grew older，our childish wishes for BB guns，baby dolls and mohair sweaters were replaced by dreams of an education，a job or a lovely wedding.We told Granny of those goals and she put each one aboard her ship.
