Terry and His Ferry

There was a man called Terry
Who captained his own Ferry
When his ship hit a rock
He recovered from the shock
Drinking a bottle of Sherry.

I Captained the Ship I Called My Own ~ark of Storm~

Ark of storm
A ship i called my own
A pride anew was born
I sail to a place i call home

I alone captained the ship
Through every destination and voyage
Make way for this mighty ark
Make way for a Royale anchorage

This ark of a thousand man
Within our territory we defend
With a sword in our hands
We fight till the very end...

Born From Adam and Eve

To Journey throughout the Seven Seas 

Refereeing all their mysteries 

Once one has captained his own ship 

And avoided all manners indelicate dealing with the drip

God's Nature shall set you free

With abundant sustenance for all to see

Challenges met thru the toughest of degrees

Makes you a Man/Woman

Born from Adam and Eve

The Ship - Novus Renascentia

Behold the ship, lost at sea,

It changes direction so frequently,

And I with them, new to sea-faring,

Sit and wonder...will we ever find our bearing?

And all of a sudden it comes to me,

In a moment of divine epiphany:


That a ship, captained by only its sailors,

Cannot navigate a sea, which no-one favors,

And thus I tell my un-happy crew,

The ship will not guide itself,

It is up to you.

Jonathan Paterson

Jonathan has been to three Paralympics, 
Beijing in China, London 2012 and Rio; 
He’s a Motherwell midfielder in the mix, 
Who’s entry was the 2006 CP Euros so. 

He travels the world with team Scotland, 
Which he sometimes captains proudly, 
But he’s also captained the other hand, 
Of ParalympicsGB, in Beijing adeptly. 

He holds Scottish Football Association 
Coaching badges at the youth level, 
Three of them, and has an education, 
In sports coaching development, bevel.
