A tribute to my VM Marine TEAM....A Poem without OM......

Au Revoir Mighty VM Team!!

A voyage nine years long,
Onboard VM Marine,
Turbulent sometimes,
Other times serene,
Heavy-hearted I bid adieu,
Melancholy and blue.

From the day I joined,
To this day as I move on,
Lies a zone,
With memories strewn,
Experiences owned,
And much more.

All onboard VM Marine,
Whether at the helm,
Or others who kept its wheels churning well,
Are a potent force,
That I will miss.

Work horses all,
Pride, Legend, Handler,
Pioneer, Prudent, Leader,
Oops, I missed our great Supporter,
All ready and majestic,
For their oil field Exploits.

The crew onboard,
Made the VM Team complete,
Towing, Anchor Handling or Supply,
Diving, Rig move or survey,
Eveready for the grind,
Safety always on their mind.

Hiccups and breakdowns,
Together we weathered the storms,
Kept mobilizations always on,
Satisfied Clients all,
ARAMCO to EXXON.


Au revoir my friends,
I sign off with a war cry,
From my Navy days.

“Hidy, tidy God almighty,
Who the hell are we?
Zim Zam goddam,
The Mighty VM Team.
VM Hooooo……
VM Haaaaaa…..”
