I am a big fan of the old sea shanties, (traditional songs that were invented and sang to help the men of the old sailing vessels do the pulling of lines in unity)and every now and then love to try my hand at one. Hope you like this one.

The Pirate and the Admiral’s Daughter

By: Fee

Daring Captain Bones called for his eyeglass

His sea chart and his first mate

He called for his pipe and for his grog too…

All to battle stations no grace to no nations

‘neath the skull and the crossed bones

We’ll wildly rove the deep blue

 

He sailed the feared galleon “Black Widow”

Sleek with her many four pounders

A wild fearless young crew, fleet on their feet

They spotted a fine British three master

The Black Widows was a little bit faster

And so they claimed this sweet treat

 

Daring Captain Bones spots a fair maiden

A raven haired beauty…a fine little cutie

Of grace and refine….

She claimed she was the Admiral’s daughter

But like a young lamb to the slaughter

He ravages her treasures as they...

shared his sweet wine

 

The lass stole daring Captain Bone’s heart

And then she sadly broke it apart

When she drugged the “Black Widow” both Captain and crew…

She turned them all in to her father

To all be hanged for their slaughter

Her British Admiralty father

Oh what else could this lass do

 

Now the lassie still walks the wild coastline

Where the waves crash and roar…

While weeping she walks and still wonders unsure

If the shape in the mist is her daring Captain Bones spirit

Forever sailing the “Black Widow”

Tell they're together once more…

Only a true sailor could write such a poem of the sea and the daring souls that plundered it with skull and bones flying high and the gal who caused there demise and still has her skirts waiting for her lover.
