On a cruise ship I did sail, <br /> <br />going to the Bahamas <br /> <br />remembering it well. <br /> <br />Listening to bands that played, <br /> <br />dance hits of their day, <br /> <br />That’s when the word <br /> <br />“happy” meant “gay”. <br /> <br />Taking photos on the deck, <br /> <br />eating lobster, shrimp and steak. <br /> <br />Raining when ship does land, <br /> <br />can not sunbathe on the sand. <br /> <br />Walking around to see the sights, <br /> <br />Bahama’s tote bag I did buy, <br /> <br />Along with 2 handmade <br /> <br />dolls pale and white. <br /> <br />One with black hair, <br /> <br />other with yellow. <br /> <br />One doll evil <br /> <br /> other doll mellow. <br /> <br />Names “Razel” and “Melodie” <br /> <br />are sewn into each <br /> <br /> separate doll, <br /> <br />in a craft like <br /> <br />looking mall. <br /> <br />Photos taken of dolls with me, <br /> <br />even Bahamian lady very pleased. <br /> <br />I put them in my Bahama’s tote, <br /> <br />More sightseeing before <br /> <br />getting on boat. <br /> <br />Walking around the town, <br /> <br />bargains everywhere to be found. <br /> <br />Now I will go back <br /> <br />some day again, <br /> <br />with a more interesting friend. <br /> <br />Written by Christina Sunrise Feb.24,2011 <br /> <br />www.purplepoems.com<br /><br />Suzae Chevalier<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/bahamas-cruise/
