I Don'T Feel Like a Pirate

I don't feel like a pirate As I travel along carefree. My husband navigates Us through the channels, as boats, ships, and Tankers, accelerate and decelerate. He is definitely the captain on this journey. I don't feel like a pirate I celebrate All I see. My husband navigates As he operates Our boat with out any castrophes. I don't feel like a pirate Yet, we are sailing the seas My husband navigates And trys to educate With rigidity which destroys my serenity. Now I feel like a pirate As my husband navigates.

Navigating through traffic during rush hour can certainly destroy one's serenity. Most husbands think it's ok to exert road rage. Delightful poem, Bette.

Thank you. My husband and I went to our daughters wedding in Pennsylvania by boat. I had never been on a boat trip before so this was an interesting adventure to stay the least. Glad to be home.
