Sailing By

The sun burning red today

Takes me back a couple

Of steps to a crazy day

Of tops down

Skirts up

Tide out,

Rod Stewart belting

Loud like only he can,

I was one of those

Some Guys Have All

The Luck, clutching

Your slightly sunburned

Bottom, your fingers

Tender on my burning

Back as we welcomed

Sun, sand and Sea

To the amusement

Of gulls, Sea lions

And the mouth wide

Open tourist sailing

By.
