An Answer to the Question What Is A Hobie Cat- A Poem

A poem of one of my favorite boats, and an amazing summer passion.

An Answer to the Question What Is A Hobie Cat- A Poem

Hobie Cats have two long hulls, a frame, and a sail.

Most have one sail, but some have two.

Propelled by a colorful sheet,

These boats glide across the water like an Olympic skater on ice.

Their large pure white hulls carry you on their backs

Across the terrain and to your next destination.

Kids scream with excitement as one hull lifts off the clear water,

And, for a second they are flying.

Eyes wide, they wait for the powerful winds

To lift them just one more time.

The trampoline that connects the floating buoys,

Lets water escape onto your feet

Making it impossible for you to stay dry.

Water splashes and feet bounce,

Waves making this roller coaster ride,

Better and better as the ride goes on.

Splash, splash, swoosh as the sail switches sides

And you’re propelled into a different direction.

A new array of crystal blue water awaits your vessel.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
