Legend and lore
Tales by the score
Versed to a Mariners’ prose
Of Pirates and treasure
Curses and pleasure
Aboard the Victoria Rose
Skull and Crossbones
‘Ol Davy Jones
Peg legs, patches, yo ho’s
Still waters or gales
Dead men tell no tales
Aboard the Victoria Rose
The passage of time
As reason and rhyme
Of which nobody knows
Within my veins
A Pirate remains
Aboard the Victoria Rose
Lest ye forget
It’s paying a debt
In reaping what legacy sews
Now a fairing for sails
I write of new tales
Aboard the Victoria Rose
