Marooned

Manic waves sunk my boat,
marvel how I could float,
made it to an island,
man there had drinking stand,
mirage I was thinking,
many swigs lemonade,
marooned coconut shade.

That was fun, and you even made it rhyme! I hope if I am ever marooned, it will be on an island with a drink stand. Congrats on your win, Cheryl.
