Bon Voyage



It was a gay sunny day,
& I saw a voyage leaving the port away,
I had a small thought of sailing venice way,
Though,wondered had a little penny left away?


I ran to the voyage saw friend of mine,
Who paid the coût for as he was shine,
Peeping to fish'es,I saw a server who served wine,
Wondered who's that brunette so divine?


Her twinkling,ensured she was not less than a fine bottle of Wine,
I toggled around,saw she slat a glass of Dom Pérignon in my hand,
I wondered why,I was not given the wine?
Her reply said "I entralled her sparkling eyes,"
Which was special because now she is fianćee of mine!
