Once part of the crew,
Nasty, Ski, Tex, Zug, and Wahoo .
Non stop Pinochle at sea,
Not foot-loose but fancy free.
Bakers played at night,
fresh pastry a delight.
Learned that Status Quo,
Was Quid Pro Quo.
Hurricanes slam the barometer,
and produce 45 + on inclinometer.
Guantanamo in July,
Castro said a spy.
Duty was not shirked,
We really worked.
A private yacht,
it was not.
