Floating

Floating

What a wonderful word is “floating”
the favourite of anyone boating;
I am less in favour of thinking
of terrible thoughts like “I’m sinking.”

On seeing the prompt for today,
my mind nearly forced me to say
something concerning what “floaters”
means to those who never are boaters.

My mouth will always melt butter
and my mind is used to the gutter.
