That Photo...

To cruise together,
Attached but not by a tether,
Out for a boat ride in beautiful weather,
The wind on the seas was light as a feather...







Poem Artwork

That photo I do most certainly love,

It fits this writer like the proverbial glove,

Taken by my love Rene,

On our boat while cruising the Delaware Bay...

 

Squeezed herself through the forward cabin hatch,

Kept her camera around her neck safely attached,

We were hitting a few waves, bouncing,

She's a great photographer, I am herein announcing...

 

That day out on the bay,

Was at a time where I was quite healthy,

We owned a small boat, but were not wealthy,

The skies that day were blue, not gray,

We ran around the Cape May point,

And enjoyed the day without any dismay...

 

I sometimes regret to see the photo now,

Taken from our little boats bow,

So much fun we had that day,

A beautiful October day that we will someday repeat,

Of this thought I do at this time most certainly avow...

YES, YOU MOST CERTAINLY WILL... AND YOUR SMILE WILL BE EVEN BROADER!! :)) xx Like Peter Pan's Happy Thought, hold onto this, Ed. It will keep you afloat and swimming in the right direction until that glorious October day is here again! May it come soon... or at least, may there also be a GLORIOUS summer before it that we can all enjoy to the max. Here's lookin at YOU, Kid! xx

Hey there Cap'n Ed! (Damn, Patrick said that already.)



But Hey, Again - ask Brother Edvard to buy you another one!

PS: Don't believe him about me winning the Lottery, but ask him about all that gold he's got buried in his castle dungeon!

Hey there Cap'n Ed, a great photographer indeed, especially considering the mug shot. There is something about boat photos that are endearing, much like this poem. Patrick
