Waves against the hull, Do of me to sleep lull, No other sound till morn, Then of the scavenging gull, Such a better place exists not, To over life’s stresses mull… A patting on the cabin roof, Over night a wayward shower, Nothing though to away from cower, Just another of Natures nuances, To find enjoyment, never do they of me sour… Awake with the dawn, With one final stretch & yawn, All manner of nightmarish dreams gone, On the shore within sight, a mother & her fawn, Just off the stern during breakfast, two curious swan… © ed 7/4/09

Have to love the sound of water lapping against the hull of a ship, whether it is a small overnight cruiser or an ocean going vessel to fall asleep to a gentle roll and ths sound of the sea's own music cannot be found any better.

I showed this picture to Ma, she is phoning to PeeWee that will be hollering to Tiger Lily about you going around on that sleek boat of yours without inviting the lovely gang...shame on you!

Merry Christmas...

We all got em''...

The Saggy, Baggy Boobs Blues,

Growing up alone is not so bad...

Alone in life...

Memories I am Unable to Forget...

To wish for death...

I find it interesting that only in the wee hours of the morning is when I find myself able to write anymore... <br>

Rain, thunder & lightning, oh my...

Hey, I think I might have found a little humor...?

...NEAT...
