K-1 What story this picture tells

One  foggy night, a little boy named Jackie was walking along  the street.  It was dark. Jackie realized he was lost. So he looked up and down the street until he realized there was river following the street he was on. Jackie walked up to the post. Jackie stood a few feet away from the post and looked at the river. The river was rather calm tonight,so Jackie decided to watch the calm river.  Suddenly, a ship sailed onto the river. Jackie was intriqued. So he watched the ship until it stopped,and the river was calm again.  

Jackie forgot that he was lost until a man with a lantern came up to him and said, "You lost, little boy?" Jackie was scared.  Jackie knew he couldn't talk to strangers, so he stayed quiet.  The man with the lantern put his arm around him.

"My name is  Claude." the man said "Are you lost?" Jackie nodded.

"See this?" Claude asked as he pointed to the ship. Jackie nodded.

"This my ship," he went on "This ship is a timeless classic. It is the best in all of the land." Jackie was interested.

"What's the lantern for?" he asked

"It's to guide me on my journeys." Claude replied  "It helps me to know where I'm going."

"Can I hold it?" Jackie asked. The man let Jackie hold the lantern.  Jackie knew the lantern was really amazing. 

They spent the rest of the night watching the river together. Jackie knew two things. He knew that he could trust a stranger. Jackie aslo knew that the lantern meant something more than light.
