Kraken Poems - Poems about Kraken

"Hold fast, don't let the lines slip", The ropes tighten around the mast of the ship, A salty Captain grasps the wooden helm, Waves rip on the horizon, his realm, Quartermaster yells "Storm heading northwest by west", White knuckled the captain shrugs as though a jest, "Hold fast Boys! This'll be a rough ride", The crew gazed upon the captain with pride, From...

Trapped in the eye of the hurricane Lost in the heart of the sea What started as a summer voyage My friend, my lover, and me Only chaos on the horizon The tempest won't set us free All you can see is fear in our eyes My friend, my lover, and me Since we were caught like rats in...

A storm is brewing The waters bracken As demon’s shout Release the kraken As windows shook He woke in fear The dreaded beast Was coming near He pulled the covers Over his head Said “he’ll never find me In this bed” After the storm He shed his dread The monster lived Inside his head For he had read Of an ancient curse Unleashed by writers In cryptic verse John G.

A radio aired an awful auld aria, Astounding all my aged aural edifices In eerie aura of araucaria trees Aching angrily in a loud typhonic breeze. My brain wanted to burrow to escape the pain Of sounds as a warren of rabid jackrabbits Digging to escape mangy slobbering coyotes Howling hungrily in panting pursuit of prey.

Kraken was the one to know, Six fish on a line would show you so. We honed our skills in Girl Pats arms, Whilst humble feasts defined us. Okanagan knew the score!

Hidden beneath the deep, Is a monster that doth sleep, And the journey to his dark chamber is steep. At first glance, You begin to weep. His eyes almost put you in a trance, For this monster there will be no song or dance. It has been isolated for years and years, but it has never wept, Because monsters dont shed tears, When it looks...

The call of the mighty Kraken across a silent sea. Is enough to scare a salior stiff, but nothing can scare me. For I know the mighty Kraken is not as bad as he may seem at first to be. All he truly wants to have is a spot of tea. So he cries and throws a tantrum. Looking for someone like me who is not afraid to sit and talk and have a spot of tea. So...
