All Work No Play

Ship shape
I wake

Sun rise
Rub eyes

Set sail 
Kiss gale

Boat rides
King tides

Big bite
Fish fight

All day
We stay

Reel in
Blue Fin

Clear sky 
Gulls cry

June day
My way

Sun set
Feet wet

Reach shore
Back sore

Now dine
White wine

Great times
Wind chimes

Night falls 
Sleep calls

Star light
Good night.
