Where's a Highlander To Be

It's another year round the corner
That leaves this Highlander to ponder
It's New Year's Resolution time
What's in this boy's mind
Could it be to adventure out yonder

*   ~   *   ~   *   ~   *   ~    *   ~   *

So where would this Highlander be
A captain on a yacht going to sea
With a beautiful blond
Sharing their literal fond
Round the coast of the land of the free

*   ~   *   ~   *   ~   *   ~    *   ~   *   

When sailing these oceans of blue
Just what would the pair of them do
Maybe some fishing
Or moonlight kissing
Whilst the seabirds fly over and go phew!

*   ~   *   ~   *   ~   *   ~    *   ~   *   

Eventually we would have to hit land
And continue to go on as we planned
The head back out to sea
It's where were happy to be
Skinny dipping, loved up and so tanned

hmmmm, sounds like your resolutions are must fantasies, james. But it's all good. REsolutions don't ever work out anyway. Better to just dream. And that sea dipping sounds awesome!

You have me dreaming of spending time at sea, dear Highlander. Maybe there'll be some fishing in the future? Hope you'll consider entering the Resolutions contest. Love, Carolyn
