Is she there to tease his senses
drive him crazy as he sails
the celibate salty seas.
Venus Goddess of love or, of torment.
Are you the dream he longs for
or,
does he really hold a woman
in his hand
Which is the smooth operator
and anyway
My mother used to say:
‘Never marry a sailor’
(not that I ever would)
when asked why she’d simply reply
‘Because they usually have
a girl in every port.’
I wonder.
