Array ( [sid] => 51364 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Pirate's Cove [time] => 2004-06-10 19:36:55 [hometext] => Not a very good poem. I wrote this on a trip to River Falls, WI while going to floriculture contest. I was bored, told a friend to find some random sign and tell me what it said so I could write a poem. She saw a sign for some theme park or some such... [bodytext] => Pirate's Cove

A pirate will die for his treasure
And quarreling gives him much pleasure
A swashbuckle here
A dead buccaneer
But death is not great enough measure

A flag flies atop of their ship
The captain, you'll give him no lip
Just for foolish pride
So many have died
And yet not a tear drop will drip

They live an adventurous life
For they thrive on danger and strife
They won't settle down
And always they frown
No wonder there's no pirate's wife

I live my life out and it's full
And I won't take none of that bull
A pirate can sail
He'll moan and he'll wail
But it's his own weight that he'll pull [comments] => 5 [counter] => 179 [topic] => 43 [informant] => liquidsunshine [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 19 [ratings] => 4 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => oops )

Pirate's Cove

A pirate will die for his treasure
And quarreling gives him much pleasure
A swashbuckle here
A dead buccaneer
But death is not great enough measure

A flag flies atop of their ship
The captain, you'll give him no lip
Just for foolish pride
So many have died
And yet not a tear drop will drip

They live an adventurous life
For they thrive on danger and strife
They won't settle down
And always they frown
No wonder there's no pirate's wife

I live my life out and it's full
And I won't take none of that bull
A pirate can sail
He'll moan and he'll wail
But it's his own weight that he'll pull

Your too hard on yourself. I liked this one it is lighthearted and it flows well, I could picture a group of pirates singing it heartily like a sea shanty. Good work.

Nice work, as ever. Savvy?

I wrote this before I'd ever heard of Captain Jack Sparrow... But he's an oddball anyway.
