Poem
Once upon a time In the imagination of a child, Was a very lonely pirate Who never, ever smiled. The pirate had no friends at all, He'd been mean and gruff and bad, Now he was quite alone And this made our pirate sad. Everyday he'd search the land, Not for jewels or gems, What this pirate wanted most Was to have a friend. Each day he'd sail to islands, Drop his anchor in the sea, Go ashore with his telescope And go on his hunting spree. But no one likes a pirate, People would run and hide, They all thought he was scary, "I just want a friend." he cried. Meanwhile on an island, Deep inside a cave, Lived a beautiful Princess Who'd been washed up by a wave. A storm had hit her parents ship, It had sunk into the sea. The only one who had been saved, Was Princess Poppy. "I miss my King and Queen." she said, "I really want a friend." But the island was quite deserted, She'd searched from end to end. One day our pirate spotted An isle he'd not seen before. He dropped his heavy anchor And waded onto shore. He began his search with his telescope, Saw birds amongst the trees, Then he heard the sweetest sound That floated on the breeze. The pirate followed the lovely tune, Found the cave and shouted in. "Hello, hello." his voice echoed It really made a din. The Princess was very frightened, Stopped singing right away. She crouched down behind a rock, Till she heard the pirate say. "I'm only looking for a friend, I promise I'm not bad. I'm just all alone with no one And this makes me feel quite sad." The Princess came out from hiding, "I am lonely too I haven't any friends at all And this makes me feel quite blue." The pirate looked at Princess Poppy, "We could be friends, you and me. You can come aboard my ship And we can sail across the sea." Princess Poppy smiled And took the pirates hand, "I think" she said "I'd like that." And they danced about the sand. Princess Poppy loves the pirate, They sail the ocean blue. She sings him lovely songs all day, They have a friendship that is true. The pirate is never lonely, He really did find gold, Having a friend like Princess Poppy Is the best feeling in the world. 4th February 2017
