Aaaarrrrrrggghhhh

AAARRRRRRHHHH – for contest


‘Twas a cold dark night
Winds freshing from the Nor’east
Sheets rippling in the October wind.
Approaching the dimly lit prize
Visions of “booty”, treasure to be ours.
Challengedby the sentry’s:  “Who goes there?”

“I’m a Pirate!!”  sez I

“Where are your Buccaneers?” sez he.

“Under me “Buccan’at” sez I.

How much does a pirate pay for corn? A buck-an-ear :) My Mom used to tell that joke... Anyways, this poem was a fun one, John. I enjoyed the humor in it... Congrats on a win!

Thanks for stopping by J-D ZLE. I don't know....my sorties into the "humorous" usually fall into the N/A cracks....
