G'day Kim … perhaps those who go to Davey Jones' locker reincarnate into sharks and enjoy a mermaid tale like we do, although a different tail - thank you Kim - Lindsay

Kim, I am loving these pirate poems. I wish I had thought of mermaid; when I was thinking of all the possibilities, I cannot believe it never bounced into my brain. Good luck in the contest!
