Gone Fishing Montauk

It's the weekend and time to decompress Hopped on the boat and out to sea I went Gone fishing out of Montauk New York In the Atlantic Ocean With just perfect wind and right tide And beautiful sunshine A fabulous feeling spread thru me I knew it was gonna be a great day at sea Her lady boat is flying like a race horse Taking me away from land Leaving all my worries and stress behind Only looking forward to catch that one big fish No disappointment there I arrived at the right home of big fish Smile Akkina R Downing 7-17-17

Cool leeward pondering this sea sonnet evokes, Akkina. Spread your net wide, did you now. This is one nice catch your muse lured w/your pen. Lovely write. Love and smiles.

What a marvelous day for you my dear, Akkina! What a terrible one for the fish! Haha! I enjoyed the sailing my friend. Wish you to have many more such days with more fish bringing home!

Haha... I love sailing, one of the most relaxing peaceful feeling. It's like flying without wings away from negativity and all that's happening on land :) thank you so much Demetrios, always happy to hear from you :)

Oh yes it was, I had so much fun. Montauk is one of the best place to visit and go fishing. So keep that in mind, you can take your wife and family, a very friendly place and nice beaches too. Campground is right on the beach :)

Wow! what a lovely day to spend your weekend, with the wind in your hair and your boat cutting through the ocean like a race horse with their white manes flying. The sea does have such a calming effect and then the excitement of the prize - catching a big fish...Maria :)
