THE SEA HIS OYSTER!
(A memory of a recent cruise.)
The rich man in his flashy yacht
Proud of all the things he's got
Doesn't understand the pleasure
Of Malcolm, seen here at his leisure.
A balcony (we were upgraded....
An offer, and we were persuaded!)
A cup of tea, a melody
(He's wearing earphones as you see.)
The view of the never-ending ocean
With its gentle heaving motion.
A pleasant day to contemplate,
Plus a delightful, charming mate......
(Sorry! I get in on the act,
But I am quite perfect, that's a fact!)
Some do this daily and live it up
(Maybe with champagne in the cup)
But, for Malcolm, all this was rare.
He enjoyed it more than a millionaire!

A lovely way to enjoy a morning coffee (or tea)and great words to remind you of the moment.
this is how i like to kick back and relax.
happy wednesday.
Comfortable and safe yet enjoying the view. Wondeful.

Wonderful view and poem ... reminds me of cruising in the Caribbean. We had coffee on the 'veranda' each morning too and wine in the evening ;--)
Hugs and blessings,
i love the quietness of this shot. and the poem, a great reminder that simple joys make life interesting.
Just a reminder of the important things in life. Wonderful poem and shot to go along with it.
A lovely scenery. Thanks for sharing.
How lovely! That's our idea of a perfect day at sea. Such a nice capture in picture and words.
