Pirate Waves

Pirate Waves




The day is young and so are we,

sailing on the deep blue sea.

Our hats are white, our jackets blue,

we are pirates, bold and true.


The winds are strong and so are we,

rolling on the rocky sea.

Our arms are strong, our hearts are black,

we will find a ship to wreck.


The sea is calm, the night is near,

we are lost, so full of fear.

The wind is gone, our arms are weak, 

we are far beyond our peak.


The sky is dark, we are washed ashore.

Alas, we are bold no more.

Our hats are lost, our jackets torn.

Our days of wrecking ships are gone.

    1. Wow, thank you so much! I would love to try writing for children, though it is very hard.
