Venus Comes To the Rescue

She sat on a small window bench Her head resting on her hand Looking out into the dark glooming As the silvery moon rose to shine On the rippling waves of the bay. It seems she was winkling at her. Telling her not to give up hope, On the horizon sailed a large boat. A red light flashing every now and then. Was it in distress? Was there something wrong? She phoned for help the harbour manager of the bay. Soon small ships raced to the yacht, The captain cursed himself for forgetting the flares. Still with help of all, the yacht was towed to harbour And all was safe and sound. The feverous glow of growing sunrise, Reminded the captain to thank his rescuer. And what a sight it was to see the beauty Spying on her luxury yacht. She was invited to dinner on the boat And love was in the air. And why not? She was a Venus descended from up above.
