The Pirates Cove

Dark Poetry

The Pirates Cove    Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum The pirates have landed, its time for some fun They have been sailing the oceans blue Count yourself lucky, that they didn't find you   Days they have sailed, they've been on the run Not one night of rest, without firing their gun Time to hide the treasure, and then drink all that rum They have landed at pirate's cove, for a wild night of fun   They drank all the rum, I'm to understand It wasn't long, before the swords were in the hand They had so much rum, their faces had turned green Soon there was a fight, like you have never seen Their night at pirates cove, should have been grand But now there were two fools, rolling around in the sand   They were fast putting, the swords in hand It was not long before, there stood but only one man The cove was soon filled, with a deathly sound Now lays one, deep within the ground A pirates life no one, will ever understand With the exception perhaps, of the man left behind in the sand     By Ray Hamilton Not a poet and I know it ! © Copyright 2 / 2008 All rights Reserved   Please Visit Me at The Poet's Nest www.thepoetsnest.com

[Angelic Darkness]

There is something whimisical and humorous about these
pirates and their night of drinking. Men and their drinking LOL!
There is a good flow here, and good visual of the action.

A pirates life does not sound grand even for the one left behind in the sand. Sword fighting and rum and always on the run, sure doesn't fun to me..... Happy I'm not a pirate at sea. I think I rather be just plain old me....LOL .....Loved the write.... Sorry about trying to be witty ...in a strange mood today...forgive me.

Being an ex-sailor, I'm always drawn to these salty tales. No rum or sword had I---just my knuckles and a lot of beer.
