Adapting To the Good Life - Or

Schmooze me darling, my appetite is rapt. Drinks with umbrellas - a tropical freeze. Cruise for teal blue waters whilst I adapt. Shrinks the mainland - aims towards* coconut trees. Muse takes the wheel - island adventure mapped. Winks his erotic eye - how wild the seas. Weather for sailing - no longer a wreck, Tether me, baby, to your wafting deck.

This is just great. I have no clue about 'Ottova rima,' but what you've written, especially the last two lines, packs a real wallop! ~ First mate, Gerhson

Kim, you are either always on vacation, or your mind is always at the Caribbean. Love it!
