Kismet Was Ready

Beautiful floppy hat with a kaleidoscopic design, You show up in the courtyard as I taste my wine. Your wearer caught my eyes, she is such a beauty. I wish I was not leaving tomorrow, but it is my duty. I signed up for the navy before I met this lovely creature. Recruiters got me hard and good, showing me a double feature. I want to get her number, but kismet will have to be ready. Right now, I am a seaman, shipping off, a guy named Freddy. I take one last look at the beauty under the hat. Is that my sister next to her? What do you think of that? Kismet has a plan. I run over to say “hi”. “This is my brother Fred, Sue said. “he is a great guy.”
