Nearly a Full Moon and not dropping an Anchor

You can feel it on your flesh.... a Moon bath or shower I don't think you can bottle it however.

We were  in an old leaky Chris Craft Style Boat.... Maybe an old Trojan... a cabin cruiser at any rate it was a Lapstrake  hull and leaked of course , they all do, they used to burn a lot of gas until  the Vapor Fuel system was installed... Now the beast would run for hours on a couple of gallons...

I was with a young woman I cared deeply about.  We were way way way......... out to sea together .... far far away form anywhere.........  when a  small group of islands appeared...

We decided to go exploring, little did we know it was going to be our destination for quite some while.

All of our earthly possessions were on the boat.... I grabbed a nap sack and  we hopped in the  dingy... we went to shore  and spent the night...

In the morning the boat was gone..... and try as I may I could not remember having put the anchor down....
I was guessing that meant I had not, in other words I was pretty sure I had not put the anchor down.. relying on my recall.... in either or anyway... the boat was gone.... we went looking around for it in the dingy hoping perhaps it got snagged or maybe went into the shore line of one of the few other islands in the group.. before drifting  out to foreverville .... Nope,  High and low we looked.. it was gone as in gone, gone......... may as well  have been forever.

Oh maybe someday someone might come across the old boat and there would be a big wondering of why.. of course since it leaked it could and likely would before long , just sink into the virtually eternal depths of the blue.. and come to a sleepy rest on some sandy dark bottom thousands of feet down.. well that was that.... it went bye bye, then blub blub........

I guess we would be scratching out an existence on that island out in the middle of Nowhere in the Sea.
Scratching the little patch of earth and catching rain water...somehow.... eating who knows what.

What a mess......... I had simply forgotten to drop anchor.

The best part was  there wasn't anyone  on the Island to be Hateful.
