Salty songs and Pirate poems

  • I haven't seen a post for a collection of Sea shanties and/or Poems. so let's start one.

    A few rules for entry:

    1. constructive criticism only (collaboration is always encouraged)
    2. please keep it PG-13 (i shouldn't have to say that but just in case)
    3. no work is bad only, under polished/work in progress.
      With that ilk out of the way I bring you my 1st song:

    A Sailor's Journey:

    Haul the line, hoist the cargo
    Haul the line, hoist the cargo.
    Off the distant shores we row

    I kissed me love goodbye.
    "Wipe away the tears from yer eye.
    I'll be back my dear, so swears I!"

    Way anchor me hearties Ho
    Way anchor me hearties Ho
    Off ta distant shores we row.

    Upon the peer my love waves to me,
    Promise she does, "I'll wait for thee,
    pray I will fer a swift journey!"

    Tack the sails and catch the breeze
    Tack the sails and catch the breeze
    Bound we are fer the 7 seas.
    Bound we are fer the Sea of thieves!
