Did I See a Ninja

I could have sworn I saw a ninja from my boat who moved stealthily through the night. Thank goodness he wasn't after me. He was in just the right amount of light At window height When I saw him flee. I could have sworn I saw a ninja from my boat Who moved stealthily through the night. I was out of sight There was no way I was going to come up an Absentee. He was in just the right amount of light I wasn't going to stop and ask him his plight. I really didn't want to have to turn my self into The police for a third degree. I could have sworn I saw a ninja from my boat Who moved stealthily through the night. I watched his flight. Things happen and the next thing you know the Thing you didn't see has some how made you A nominee who is now a presentee. He was in just the right amount of light And the time was around midnight. You want to hear something funny? It wasn't a ninja at all it was the dock Master checking the last of the boats in the Storm making sure their lines were secure so There would be no catastrophes. I could of sworn I saw a ninja who moved Stealthily through the night He was in just the right amount of light.
