Cruise ships are approaching the port
tourists can't wait to resort
Straw vendors and hair braiders take their place
waiting on customers to embrace
Merchants all along the bay
are too waiting to earn their pay
Tourists from the ships are now free to roam
taxi and surrey drivers are first to zoom
Walking or riding, the city is bustling
as the day ends so does the hustling
Tomorrow some ships will leave the port
others will come in with their resort
Leaving behind happy faces
cruise ships are in good graces
