A SHIP CALLED EMILY MORGAN

A SHIP CALLED EMILY MORGAN

A Poem by anthony blake
"

SHIP INTO A BUSINESS

"

Does anybody know what the ship “Emily Morgan” is?

Think hard as I might be giving a Quiz

The ship is of a Merchant Vessel

But someone famous you know was part of this ship

However, here’s a tip

It’s a famous store name in Herald Square

The name is advertised regularly on the air

The man’s name is R.H. Macy

But here is the full name Rowland Hussey Macy

Mr. Macy was a Merchant Seamen from Nantucket in Cape Cod, MA

If you are or were a Macy’s shopper, I am sure you didn’t know that being part of Macy’s Heritage

But I wanted to share being my privilege

So set sail was how Mr. Macy ventured

But it was the mightier the storm, the wonders of the adventure

Mr. Macy was often guided on the Emily Morgan using his own initiative 

He sailed on the seas of Cape Code, but New Bedford, MA being one of his ports

So the Emily Morgan was a ship with a Macy’s Department Store mission

Mr. R.H. Macy was a Merchant Seamen that made it happen.
