Nautical Adventure


Splash! Splash! The waves hit the beam. Click! Click, click, click, click, click! The winch whines as the sheet is hauled in. Creak, creak! The hull groans under the stress. There is nothing quite like sailing. The sounds of the howling wind And Jimmy Buffett singing are inspiring. The contrasting colors of the azure ocean And the ivory mainsail dazzle the mind. However, The pleasing sights and sounds Can soon leave As a storm can appear out of nowhere. But, luckily, it can leave as quickly As it comes. Soon, too soon sometimes, land is in sight. The beauty of it all is that You can embark once more On a new adventure whenever you want.
