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 .
