Lycia Harding Poet Tail-rhyme

Poseidon's Realm

===============================
Be warned, who goes there at his helm!
This corner of Poseidon's realm
belongs to ME.

From shiny crest to briny floor,
horizons ledge to edge of shore, 
I OWN this sea!

Herein, a vessel named as thine
shall be reclaimed and hence be mine - 
as will it's BANK

But fear ye not! When faced with dues
defaulters, in debts place, may choose
to walk the plank!

I am the Ocean's rebel son
and devils work is never done,
so, I set sail...

Forever after, young again,
both Cabin Boy and Captain in
this pirates tale...

===============================

Andrea Dietrich September 12, 2015 at 4:45 PM You chose a great form in which to portray the thoughts of a pirate. Lycia Harding September 14, 2015 at 9:44 PM Thanks, Dre. Yeah, this format is very challenging but of course, that's what makes it fun, right?

Frederic Parker September 10, 2015 at 6:28 PM I'm new to your poetry, my first thought after reading this was it was a very interesting poem with a nice flow to it..good luck in the contest Lycia Harding September 10, 2015 at 7:47 PM Thank you Frederic. Same to you if you've entered. Oddly, I've noticed that this particular poem seems to have a different effect on men than it does on women. Perhaps because it's written from a man's point of view? Whatever the reason, I find that interesting...
