Streets awash with mewling cats
and surly swashbuckling pirates.
Somber skies with swirling bats,
and ghastly goblins chasing rats.

Pirates

The skull and cross bones flew
 From the pirate ships' mast
Chasing their prey, and gaining fast
They were indeed, a blood thirsty crew

In these depths
And caverns
Pirates once walked
Carrying treasure
If I told you I found it
And drew you a map
Would I die alone
Or make you rich

Polite Pirates

The captain called all hands on deck
He said come on lads what the heck
Whatever you do

don’t leave the loo in such a wreck

Pewter goblets
Tin and copper
The last remnants
Of ancient taverns
And olden abodes
Of bygone memories
From bloodthirsty pirates
And poisonous wine

Halloween

It’s hallowe’en,
Kids are trick or treating,
Dressed as pirates, ghosts,
And many other things,
With pumpkins as lanterns,
Lighting their way.

Tiny pirates
Have capsized my bed
And stolen my sleep
Blast those little
Buccaneers!
Now I'm counting sheep!

Premium Member We Plunder

We plunder the ideas and creativity of all,
like modern day pirates.
Ensuring the success of the corportation.
Very safe, very quiet,
unlike the pirates of old.

The Tale

He told a fantastic tale
Of his adventures with captain krail
Finding gold and treasures at sea
And bags of a healing tea
Which they sold to pirates on the trail

Premium Member Abe Lincoln's Return

Abe Lincoln returned for a day
  He looked about him in his curious way

Mused to himself, must be mean pirates here
  Everyone and his sister sports a blue beard

Pirate Ship

The pirate ship sailed the high seas
Looking for other ships to seize
Taking jewelry, mainly gold
Those pirates were bold
Until they robbed a ship fill with disease

pirate humans are dragged towards rocks created by own plundering

Winter blackbirds perch
high on fresh budding branches
leaves eager for birth---
one lonely Honey pirates
my Rip Van Winkle lawn scape.

The Pirates of Sean Penn's Aunts

Penn's Aunts, patch-eyed women
Cutlass carried, pistol too
You mess with Sean,
They mess with you
Give his movie a bad review,
You'll walk the plank,
That's what they'll do.

The Trick of St Patrick

Patrick lived in Great Britain, his wick,
But when he was sixteen and quick, 
Was captured by pirates horrible, 
Taken to Ireland adorable, 
Where he found god, his walking stick.

Porch Pirates

These porch pirates are quite the wise guys
so thought of a plan to help their demise
unheard and absurd
I packaged pet turds
boy were they in for a rare gift surprise!
