Storm Shoutin If one has never been ta sea Then they don't understand The fear that comes into the heart Of us tiny men Who dare ta brave da ragin storm Da wind tossed breakin waves That come ta steal a sailors life Ta send ta watery graves Da decks awash with salty foam Da spray's as hard as rocks Da sailors heart is wishin now They'd never left da dock We do it for da freedom Found atop da ragin waves For shootin stars and comets tails For music sung by Whales For twinklin blinkin Harbour lights For Jasmine sented breeze We keep on sailin through da storm And shoutin out WE'RE FREE!!!
Cottons to do anythingum ya want ta do! I didn't start sailin til I was in my late 20's. Most of life's real accomplishments are done later in life. That's da way it's set up. Don't despaire you CAN be free!!! Da"Sail Free"Captn
what a beautifull poem....it reminds me of my dad, he joined the merchant navy at 16....he's circumnavigated the globe twice by the time he hit 21, he allways told me stories of all the places he's been and boats so big they had a royal enfield motorbike at each side to get you to the bow......some were so big he said it took them 9 miles in full reverse to stop...thank you for that DaCaptn.....Peace out....Sid
