Jovial

The famous tea clipper
brass compass binnacles,
 ship's wheels,
 engine telegraphs,
 and ditty boxes for personal storage
 a magnetic compass 
days and nights
we carried these until
someone who wished to purchase them
surfaced
the buyer said they were bought as treasure but more
so for inspiration
in there music
sailor folk art is a rare and valuable hooby
it fetches wealth and prestige
at the same time
oh the ships of Surreintio
there the oranges are delicious and sweet
Dorking wines oohist me
