Land: Ahoy! I See Ship

The ship heaved and lifted with the sea to fall back In cock screwing motion the oaks creaking within Staggering as wind swept the quarter-deck clean Running spray of salt water blurring our vision Deserted looked the Black Knight, sails downed. Shortened to by pass dark rain drenched night ‘Helm-man’ says Melodie the she pirate captian Go on issue chocolates and ale jugs all around ‘Aye Captain Sir’ say’s I shout the orders below. CRash----MUnch….ROars the ship; goes to land: In jiffy I hit the wood wall landing on my back Lord God I faint among the sacks, shipwrecked. Murmurs of hale and hearty ring joys, I awake Walk on deck to feel the sunlight rock and land Haughty song babbles shores ran after our tails Duffer fool know ye not, rocks jabbed my back .
