Dave is a happy seaman. He works on a big ship. He loves the blue sea. Dave gets up early each morning. He washes the deck with water. He sings as he works. Then Dave checks the ropes. He puts them in neat circles. He keeps the deck clean and safe. Dave sees two dolphins in the sea. They jump beside the ship. He smiles and waves at them. At noon, Dave sits down to eat. A bird takes his sandwich. Dave laughs as it flies away. The sun goes down over the sea. Dave sits and rests after work. He is happy to be a seaman.
