Curled waves crash and roll along the shore Flowing in from far off lands They carry secrets of long-lost treasure lore As they kiss the sodden sands Where they come from not many know Presents left in water’s weeds Rising from the depth or caught in undertow Are bottles emptied of rum and mead Mysteries lie hidden within the ocean gloom Ships now broken and lying dead They are a hollow coffin where men are strewn Among slivers of a once proud maidenhead Pirates once pillaged these waters far and wide Daring to seek a wealth of gold Now they are buried under sand and ocean tide Becoming legends of days of old When the wind rages and storms tauntingly wail You can hear a plaintive refrain It’s the voices of dead Pirates who tell the tale As they sail towering waves again. aziza |
