A Speed Boat

Nothing like being in a speed boat,

As the salty spray is inhaled.

it is most exciting, as you are one

With the wind, leaving you enthralled.

 

It is an experience worth having.

If you are ever by a lake,

Rent a speed boat and set off

With all the speed it can take.

 

You will long remember

The mist that flies in your face.

The thrill of being behind the wheel,

As if you were in a race.
