Sea Sick

I wanted to go fishing in the ocean Forgot the result of constant motion You wouldn't believe How much I heaved Would give gold for a nausea potion For the "Fishing" contest.

I like this rhyme scheme and the last line sums it up for all too many. Too close to the truth or the railing. Thanks and best wishes from Gerard.

So that's why you won't take that fishing cruise with me, LNC! There are some pretty potent remedies for seasickness. Hope you'll reconsider. Dane Ann says she just wraps pony tail holders around her wrists and the nausea is gone. Funny poem for John's contest. He's sure to love it! Wishing you success, dear. Love, Carolyn (actually I just tape the cheesburgers to my belly -- where all my extra calories seem to land)
