Bette Bavington Poet Villanelle

We'Re Going

Ahoy mates! We're going in our boat on a trip.
We're going to do the Great American Loop.
Soon we will be a blip.
We'll take lots of video clips.
We'll be joining a group.
Ahoy mates! We're going in our boat on a trip.
We're getting helpful tips.
Nah! We're not on a sloop.
Soon we'll be a blip
On our pleasure trip.
You want to know the scoop?
Ahoy mates! We're going in our boat on a trip.
We've checked our boat for drips.
Now we can have a grill cheese with soup.
Soon we'll be a blip.
Our boat is our workmanship
As we wave to people sitting on their back stoop.
Ahoy mates! We're going in our boat on a trip
Soon we will be a blip.

Andrea Dietrich March 4, 2019 at 3:30 PM cool whimsical poem. Loved the grilled cheese part!! Bette Bavington March 5, 2019 at 7:54 PM Thank you. This is a trip we have been planning for two years. We hope to have a lot of fun on this trip and explore the ICW. When we were in Crystal River on one of our boating trips before Hurricane Michael hit. We had grilled cheese sandwiches that I cooked in our boats kitchen. I am glad you liked it.
