My Ship

Beneath the deep blue sky, my ship, Its curving timbers bend and bow, Upon a mast flapping about, Are white sails all eager to go. A voyage over distant seas, Beneath the deep blue sky, my ship, The rigging whistling in the wind, Is music playing to my ears. For me a life upon the wave, Oceanic winds my only guide, Beneath the deep blue sky, my ship, On its journey around the world. Ahhh! A brave captain I be Sending my crew this way and that, Until mum calls us in for tea, Beneath the deep blue sky, my ship. Form: Empat, Empat
