Capt. Flint Posted July 26, 2003 Author Posted July 26, 2003 It's one thing to get smart, it's another to get cocky, but, it is entirley another thing to get plain arrogant. A pirates death dream I am the stalker who sails through the night I dine on your sorrow I breathe on your fright When you feel lost, all adrift and alone There you will find me, plucking your soul Not all at once, as a glutton to feast But, little by little Piece by piece And when I have finished you'll feel all hope is gone Then I will leave you And set sail with a song And who am I you ask.. to make such claims who can boast with such pride for causing sorrow and pain An answer you seek, but, none will you find My indentity I'll keep After all it is mine And if this small news... upsets you so Then I'll thank you now for my gift to go And if tommorrow arises remember to look For as soon as you do I'll have you String.. line ..and hook

Blow me up, blow me down, I'm a blowin' on the tide... It was not my intention to be insultin' you! Blow me up, blow me down, I'm a blowin' on the tide... You open fire with cannon and verse Blow me up, blow me down, I'll be blowin' on the tide... To see just who, if any, is worse Blow me up, blow me down, I'll be blowin' on the tide... You stalk the seas for likely prey Blow me up, blow me down, I'm a blowin' on the tide... And none you hunt see the break of day Blow me up, blow me down, I'm a blowin' on the tide... My methods, dear, are much less cold Blow me up, blow me down, I'll be blowin' on the tide... I'll love ya up, THEN steal yer gold! Blow me up, blow me down, I'll be blowin' on the tide...

Capt. Westyn Elizabeth Roberts Posted July 27, 2003 Posted July 27, 2003 No steppin' on toes here, MMM. I'm happy to share the boards with everyone. This little corner was ORIGINALLY started as a way for Captain Flint and I to take harmless bashes at each other. But, I'm happy to see that it has grown. Captain Weaver has the best limericks on the Seven Seas and most of the land. Way to go, Cap'n! Anyway, enjoy the little corner for poetry. I'm glad that someone feels like rhyming. Right now, I feel like rhyming...right on top of the head of a telemarketer. "There once was a telemarketer Who...." Ah, never mind! Where's the Captain Morgan's Spiced Rum? Scratch that. Found it. Cheers! Capt. WE Roberts "I shall uphold my indignity with the utmost dignity befitting a person of my undignified station."
captweaver65 Posted July 27, 2003 Posted July 27, 2003 Captain Weaver has the best limericks on the Seven Seas and most of the land. Way to go, Cap'n! Capt.Roberts, thank you much fer the kind words o praise. and I be likin yer rhymin too. I find that the competion part of this,takes the focus off of the pretty words and instead makes it a grubbin for dominance. I just like ta rhyme a bit-no competin fer me.

Where's the Captain Morgan's Spiced Rum? Scratch that. Found it. There once was a telemerketer named Fred Who's phone got glued to his head He called Captain Lizzie And kept her phone busy He's lucky he didn't wind up dead!! Nods to Captain Weaver for inspiration... "You have a woman's skin, m'lord! I'll wager that hides never been rubbed with salt and flayed off to make stockin's for a pirates best cabin boy!"
Mad Maudlin McCrumb Posted August 1, 2003 Posted August 1, 2003 Oh dear! Is this the end of our spirited banter? I was having such fun! A toast, A toast my friends To a most worthy opponent! The cannons blazed and eyes glazed If only for a moment! "You have a woman's skin, m'lord! I'll wager that hides never been rubbed with salt and flayed off to make stockin's for a pirates best cabin boy!"

Capt. Westyn Elizabeth Roberts Posted August 11, 2003 Posted August 11, 2003 Phone got glued to his head! HAHAHA! I like that, and I wish it was true. I think I'm going to have to order "Privacy Director" or change my phone number. I have my Internet set up so that if a call rings in, it cuts me off. I have had several family emergencies lately, and I can't miss a call! There once was a telemarketer named Ted Who aggravated to earn his bread He called up old Westyn Who knew how to best him And he woke up one morning quite dead Love to Captain Weaver again...another lovely limerick!
