It’s Thursday and that means it’s also time to participate in Poetic Thursday with Pam, Teddy and Angel Sammy over at Two Spoiled Cats.
To celebrate today being “Talk Like A Pirate Day”, this is the photo inspiration for today’s poem, provided by Pam and the boys last Thursday.
And here is my poem:
The Pirate
Known as a menace wherever he sails,
he’s only trouble and tough as nails.
Heartless and cruel, it’s all part of the job;
always in search of someone to rob.
No vessel’s his friend, just potential prey,
but when the storms rage, he’s as cautious as they.
So the lighthouse stands as a welcome sight,
and guides them all with its impartial light.
Come on over to Pam’s blog to read other “pirate” poems. Aargh….
