I can wish, can't I...?

Poem Artwork

A boat I’ve found that I like

Though my other half won’t

It has a cabin and twin motors

But she will most likely just buy me a bike…

 

She looks pretty good

But painting the bottom I should

That is of course if it were mine I could

Of fiberglass she is well built, not wood…

 

A cabin with a bed and shower

Though of fuel she might devour

I know of reading this she does of me glower

And to be honest, when she does this, in the corner I sit & cower…

Good thinking and what you want you can have. Just have to work at it. All good things come to those who wait. Rufuz would love to go sailing and I think she would also after she owns it with you. Go with the winds and be free, both of you.

Get a shovel and start digging under your motor home. A little birdy told me that Rufuz has buried a fortune there. And go buy that boat, but please don't tell Rufie I told you.

Never hurts to dream, Ed - never know. She might surprise you!

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.

Ah, the boat is a beauty, Ed...but will she keep you warm on cold nights, or comfort you in bad times, or not collect barnacles in aging? Besides, RUF said he's prone to sea-sickness :o) Happy surfing...

Rufuz would look great on the front, I now he'd want you to buy it. Great boat to water ski on. What fun. Get out of the corner my friend and get on the water. Love, Bonnie
