The Enigma
February, 2022
A. Chemem (adapted)

Wynken, Blynken, and Nod onenight
Sailed off in a WOODEN SHOE ---
Sailed on a river of crystal light,
Into a sea of dew.
                             Eugene Field

What is interesting about WOODEN SHOE in the context of this verse?

A simple wooden shoe is a SABOT, and SABOT can be anagrammed into BOATS.
