The Adventurer


Recommended Posts

I.

He cut a dashing figure on deck

Resembling a dagger to the neck.

Misty gray-blue, his glare

Only the sea can compare.

Hair, dark and soft as raven’s wing

This, self proclaimed, “Pirate King!”

“Jonathan Hawks belongs in the stocks

Jonathan Hawks will lose more than his locks!”

II.

He sails not for fame or lady’s pleasure

He is purely an adventure.

Seeking that which was lost,

No matter what the cost.

Life or limb

Is all the same to him.

“Jonathan Hawks belongs in the stocks

Jonathan Hawks will lose more than his locks!”

In case you all are curious the "Jonathan Hawks" in this poem is NOT the one who vists this estabishment. The actual insperation came from someone's avitar. . .Captain Ciaran!

Yes, I am leaving the pub. I don't know when or if I will come back to this port. I will check in from time to time. Until then:

*raising goblet of good cheer*

" To high adventure, and wild romance....long may they endure!"

For I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content
