[RiddleRose]: 298.Poetry.A Pirate's Wish

A Pirate's Wish; For Capitan Morganna of the Dark Lady (aka [pirate witch])

Back to the sea, to the sea, says I,
To the roaring wind and the waves.
And all I want is a tall tall ship, and a star to sail her brave.
And the snap of the wind in the sail, says I,
And the lonely seagull’s cry.
And a lubberly crew,
Aye aye the crew,
To order about, says I.
And lo and behold!
The pirates’ gold, to carry away with me.
And the clash of swords, and the cannons boom, and the kick of the wheel, says I.
So back to the sea, to the sea I say!
And a pirates life for me!
