Pirates Don't Wear Pink

Avast me mateys, hearty and rude
We pirates would never dress like a dude
We roams the seas under flags black and white
With foul dispositions, dark, like the night
We'll wear yellow sashes
and red feathers, I think
But of one thing I'm sure
Pirates would never wear pink
"Pink is not manly," I says with a scowl,
and sip on my grog, both rancid and foul
"Why if we was to dress like a dandy,
We'd be boarding those ships
and passin' out candy!"
They'd laugh at us and circle their ears
and throw us kisses, instead of jeers
So shiver me timbers, I'll never, I think
Be boarding a ship and wearing pink!

I laughed out loud reading this.  It was quite humorous.  You are right, I don't think you'll ever see a pirate wearing pink.

Aaaargh, pink, pitewy (that's pirate jargon for a good spit on the plank.

Fun.

Awww...much enjoyed the giggles!
Hugs~

Something tugs at me, I've no doubt of that.
Something from the sea, whichever one I'm near.
When I stray too far from beachland, it calls me back
