A Christmas Ode - Aboard ship

This is a Christmas ode to the crew from the middle of the Atlantic...............

The friendliest characters
Unmatched in the fleet
The yardstick for others
(If they want to compete)

The best in the company
The passengers attest
(Don’t feel bad for Ventura
They’re doing their best)

We have the happiest security
Detecting the wrongs
(We’d all like a bit
Of whatever they’re on)

And Headlining the boat
Is award-winning beauty
Smiles and glitter
The shaking of booty

The F&B team is the sharpest afloat
The invisible pianist who won’t miss a note
As he plays us his tireless, moving cadenza
We’ll even ensure he won’t get influenza.

To everyone who come to us with a sneeze
(We know at times we all feel a bit of unease)
To the ones who at Christmas get too hale and hearty
To the kids who fall down at Mr Bump’s Party

To the florist with Christmas trees, just unplanted
And to everyone else we all take for granted.
You know who you are and what you have done
And though you might not get snow this year
At least here comes the sun.

It’s not just good luck
It comes from the top
Hard work. Forgiveness.
A damn good mop.

We wish you all the best Christmas
And all that you dream
In two thousand and nine
From the medical team
