Listen to poem:

Belay

Just belay, will you,
hook-up and just stay.
Grab a mooring,
until the break of day.
Or ride at anchor on line,
rode to sea's bedstead,
instead.
Just belay, and moreover just stay,
steadfast and sheltered, right here secure, 
with no if and buts
for up-anchor, quick-and-away lifts,
to aweigh, your belay stay
with me today.
