Best Sank Poems

Sank that Annie Laurie, down beneath those waves,
Took with her such fine young crew and not a life she saves.
Left there on the mountain,
Just the wives, the gals, the slaves.

Ne'er hunt nor e'er sing shall these lads so lost,
To mountain folk only known that which...

The Snowflake That Sank The Titanic

It all begins with a single snowflake
(Each one in itself is unique)
Brought about through evaporation,
And returned by the force of gravity
In the form of snow to the planet,
To rest on the Greenland ice sheet,
Some fifteen thousand years ago.
Snowflakes multiplied trillions...

Limerick : Once a lone Sailor who sank wih his ship

Once a lone Sailor who sank with his ship
Bargained with a Mermaid through her hare-lip
She would give him a lift
If he’d give her a gift
That’s how mermaids got to wear haïr-clip.

She was posh and built at enormous cost

   Alas, She was fated to be star-crossed

      Plunged to Her eternal grave

         Capt Smith gave a final wave

One evening I sank into a sanctuary
I wasn't lonely although i was alone
I once visited a maudlin mortuary
and it made me wish i were nothing but bone

no flesh to sweat nor tears to shed
just my body in a coffin forged of brass
i'm not certain why...

I have no pride
I guess it's better than suicide
You left me here to die
The ship has sank
Cause of some stupid lie

I'm always diving deep
I'ts Saturday night
Do you know where man could get some sleep
I'm a different rank
This ship has sank!
This ship has sank!

Some say it's...

His straw sank to the bottom


Hey babe you need a straw to stir your drinks
Beautiful pickup line hon, what do you thinks
I think your blue calm ocean
Needs some whirling motion
I see a whale curing your blues as it sinks

(When the ship sank)

When the ship sank I was on deck, my flute
sang a holiday, my legs were trembling like a whale
Cabin sat on whiskers, spills swerved the seas.
Dennis was close hey hey,check the wind,check the wind
Cool like frigidity lady whupped the deck
Metals creaked all...

Cletus joined the Navy on a fool whim

   And was told he needed to learn to swim

      He was launched off the dock

         And he sank like a rock

The sea had been blue since they were born, 
But, before that, only the god could tell its color; 
Now, a crimson vacuum, filled with blood, 
And in it, they lay, longing for tomorrow. 
Tomorrow would not come their way, 
But would be buried with...

I felt among the tired stars
for you
among the frozen banks
of ice and blue
and soon
the rushing wind
came weeping
with weary tones
aching echoes of the world

I felt with burning hands
for you
in twilight mist of eucalyptus
churning clay in waves of red
with trembling fingers
nearly dead
frail in the face of the...

over eighty but still smiley and spry
he met each new day with joy in his eyes

he loved to golf and he loved to bowl
both were his fun and fulfilling goals

one day playing golf with his skilled swing
he scored below par - his favorite thing
he rushed...

She grew resplendent on the docks,
Growing upwards from below,
A magnificent sight to behold,
A luxurious hotel to sail the sea,
Rich, famous and poor all looked on in awe,
"Unsinkable" they said,
But mistakes where made,
Hitting an iceberg below, she slowly sank,
Some saved but most died,
The fascination with the...

That grip I longed for 
Decided in a second faster
Than my yearn
But was much slower to catch up
With another second
... I sank

You touched my soul
But it was too late
Now ripped from your world 
To the world
That liquefy pains;
Those streams 
That water your cheeks

We'll miss each...
