Pirate Queen Lu

Windy day breezing past pirate queen’s lair.
Lifts dainty curls off her neck on a dare

Sunlight sprinkles reflected in her eyes
She dares the day to bring her a surprise

Brought in full grown mode to the Sanscript Sea
Her beauty surpassed by her bravery

Cowards and kings hide within their ships deep,
Reputation dulls bounty she does reap.

No man can match the courage of this lass.
Best hold your breath until your ship goes past.

The pirate queen, Lu lives a pretty life.
Her pirate army wins with little strife.

Until she meets Baron Barr, big and bold.
Their story is one that never gets old.

Thank you Evelyn. I was writing it in honor of a friend, Lu.
