He Rode the high seas, the crested waves .
. .
He was coming home again, after many, many
days.
Always wiping salty water from his eyes. .
.
Defending his lovely ship from the plunderers,
to their surprise
The oceans was wide and deep . . .But sailing
was his life.
He began as a teen, had a lot of experience
and strife.
But he loved to sail the ship upon the ocean
blue.
It was as close to his heart as his sweetheart
true . . .
The giant whales would snort and spray, quite
loud.
‘Twas nice to see and he was thankful when
the day was under no cloud.
Terns, erne's and sea-gulls’s ever awaits
the ships swill
From the ships galley and all about, they’d
get their fill.
Many times danger put a frown upon his furrowed
brow,
But through dangerous days and nights he made
it home somehow.
Through the pirates and the misty sprays that
were all awash.
Upon the prow and stern the salty water came
to slosh.
He’d surely be home by mid-night, early sunrise
for sure,
Then more clothing, food and supplies, he’d
be sure to procure.
Then once again upon the oceans and high seas
he’d be . . .
All the beauty and glamour of the sea and
stars God put there to see.
