OCEAN FLING


Little lady in blue, was life so boring
that you felt compelled to break free from your mooring?

Perhaps the whales who are back in season
flirted with you and became the reason.

Or was it a sailor aboard a lass nearby
whose face was illumined by the starlit sky?

Whatever the cause, you gave me a fright
for I had no idea if you were all right.

With luck you were spotted and with the aid of a friend
your solo escapade had a safe end.

But I need you to promise just one little thing
prior to embarking on your next ocean fling.

If you're feeling restless and want to play
you’ll give me a shout, I’ll come right away.

For I am your Captain, my adventurous girl
and you need my help your jib sail to unfurl!
