The Cartographer
Located where, is Heaven, on these maps?
Cleverly hidden in Epitaphs?
Perchance in Stars seen from afar-
Or buried with Captain Cook, perhaps?...

Australia Day 1770
We docked the ship
dropped anchor in the bay 
headed for the shore 
pulling oars all the way 
the Captain at the helm
the Scientist at his side 
the joy in his face
had no place to hide
look at the Botany 
was all he could say

Captain Cook
Captain Cook was cruising in Hawaii
                                Yes,he deserved better fate, no wifi
                                       But his lucky star smiled
                                       He found Venus beguiled

A Crook Cook
Captain Cook he had a chook
But eggs it wouldn't lay,
So he ate the chook and now he's crook,
He cockle-doodle-doos all day.

Captain Cook he had a horse 
But the horse it wouldn't run,
So he ate the horse as a main course,
Now he neighs in the noon day sun.

Captain Cook he had a cat
But the cat it wouldn't meow,
So he ate the cat, now he's so fat,
His belly-button just went pow!
