After the Storm

After the storm eased slowly Big waves smashed against the shore Causing havoc everywhere Drinking more than he should Eating until stuffed Feet sliding everywhere Grabbing at straws He caught on to what he could Into the sea he waded Jigging about he got soaked Keeping to his feet only just Looking everywhere Masts in the distance Nothing else out there Or not that he could see Perhaps a castle far away Queen could be dining Royal banners flapping Swimming towards it Took a long time Under the spell Victory not clear Washed up on the shore Xebec sailing past Yacht moored near by Zanzibar in the distance
