Bruin Fisher Posted September 20, 2010 Report Share Posted September 20, 2010 Another site had a light-hearted 'talk like a pirate' day yesterday. I contributed the following: Messrs Morgan, and Bonny, and Teach Did disport with a cabin boy each. They each thought it best Not to use the Crow's Nest But to roger his boy on the beach. Grim Blackbeard, the last of his breed Committed a dastardly deed His practice heretical (albeit parenthetical) Was to sprinkle his crew with his seed. Not great literature, I know, but it was fun!

Cole Parker Posted September 20, 2010 Report Share Posted September 20, 2010 Very good, Bruin. Especially the first stanza. That was great. C Link to comment
EleCivil Posted September 21, 2010 Report Share Posted September 21, 2010 Ev'ry wench an' most sailors did fawn O'er a Silver ol' Captain named John As his cutlass he'd wield, Three full feet of steel! ...But that's not why they call him "Long" (Happy belated Talk Like A Pirate Day) Link to comment
Cole Parker Posted September 22, 2010 Report Share Posted September 22, 2010 Great to see you back, E/C. Or have you just been lurking, keeping mum, and, uh, OK, scratch the keeping mum part, I don't think you swing that way. C Link to comment
Bruin Fisher Posted September 22, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2010 Lovely Limerick, E/c - now can you write chapter two of Leviathan Rusts, please??!! I've been waiting SO LONG! (a whole year!) I'm guessing real life has been intruding on your online time, and I can't really complain - I haven't written anything new since last December, which is beginning to worry me more than a little (perhaps my creative braincells have died?).
