Fun - Arrhh Me Hearties, It's A Pirate's Life For Me Poem by Paul Warren

I remember Errol Flynn as Captain Blood
A swashbuckling hero and not a dud
Taking the Treasure ships on the Spanish Main
The arch typical pirate forced to this game

On Saturday Afternoon we saw them all
And always wanted the pirates not to fall
Being able to talk like a pirate was all in fun
Making pirate ships in the backyard was our run

I remember making a tri quarter hat from an old fedora
Becoming Blackbeard the pirate was not out of order
Plastic cutlasses and a cardboard roll telescope
We sailed the Spanish Main and ran from the rope.
