Paula Goldsmith Poet Rhyme

What a Trip

For my very special birthday,                                           my girlfriend and I went on a trip on the ocean not on the bay.                                                                                      Before going to bed,                                                       I washed some things out~then off to see the sun of red.  My things are still wet the next morning,                         this must be a huge warning.                                           It turns out,                                                        they are my things she said with a shout.                         We both had it all,                                                         we laughed until we had to crawl.                                   Both with bright teal underwear,                                     that was more then we could bare.
