Norwegian Pearl, gorgeous girl
Thought we’d give cruise a whirl
A week aboard to just unwind
The constant crushing daily grind
Soft scent sea air like magic flowers
An ocean bouquet of healing powers
The gentle sway, relaxing pace
Put a smile back on my face
Refreshing beverage in the breeze
Tasty morsels meant to please
One more belt size by end of week
Ignored the treadmill’s diet speak
Crab stuffed mushrooms, pints of beer
Steak cooked “blue,” my favorite dear
Casino gambling…lost my tush
I had straight, the dealer flush
Leisure evenings, pleasant nights
Rolling ship’s, sleepy delights
All unwound now from the stress
Not one thought of next week’s mess
Now returned to Long Beach Berth
I offer up for what it’s worth
As I contemplate how Monday will be
I could really get used to being “lost at sea”
