We frequently go on comfort's cruises
for that's the way to relax in style.
From New Orleans we once embarked
On an old girl named Enchanted Isle.

Isle's not a ship like the new monsters
so constant now in the Caribbean Sea.
It was a ride where friendly feelings
flowed smoothly and easily.

Isle provided activities and vistas
before and after every port.
Dancing, bridge, shows, and games
for we of the sedentary sort.

Each meal was an elegant banquet.
from first sun until it was late.
We dined with our new found friends
to learn everyone was gaining weight.

I'd hang out in the ship's library;
work a puzzle, read or chat.
The Spyglass Lounge was for music,
and my favorite beverage on tap.

Now the Isle's alumni are sad hearing
Isle's been sold in bankruptcy court.
I remember that old girl calling on
each select green island port.
