Notes About The Poem

We all have little pirate in us waiting to travel. Listen to the call. Have fun

Once Again

Once Again
By Franklin Price
2/4/2017

Once again to sail
My ship into the port

Once again to capture
Booty from the fort

Once again to swing
My saber in the air

Once again, enjoy the looks,
Of all the ladies fair

Once again to sail
The tide into the sea

Once again to set the course
For a date with destiny

Once again to swash 
The buckle on the wave

Once again, with great bravado,
Capture victory, or grave

It's not over 'til it's over
Come along with me

My sails are not yet furled
 I'm headed out to see
