Ladys Reproach

The ladys reproach to the captains calls.

With the whir of engines in the distance

Which peeked the womans interest

Her heart sped as the noise grew

Away away her mind flew

As her beloved grew closer and closer

She ran and she fussed

Trying not to look mussed

All for her beloved

As she stood all half-dressed and ready

a knock came to her door

hard and steady

Her heart flew at the sound

She mussed and fussed trying to look 

Like she expected him to be there

A loud bash came from the hallway

She ran to see what there was

It was her father ready to kill

But he beloved had the greater will

Unconscious and stunned

her father lay as he beloved

came to take her away.

He swept her off her feet

Away the flew to his captain's seat

There they waited and stayed

Until they were clear to leave

And then there was a great heave

and away they went all nice and free.
