8-12-13 a Change of Scene

He quit the sea as a Pirate, To become a Hard Rock Miner, No more could he take The Wind and the Water, Thought he the Dirt and Dust Could make his Life the better. Hard Work it was And the blisters grew, The sweat and heat was Most oppressive. And the Gold trickled in, And the Gold was worth it.
