“Ship Ahoy Me Hearties!!!” 🧜‍♀️

“Ship Ahoy Me Hearties!!!” 🧜‍♀️

I dived into the deep blue ocean, my bottom half was a scaley tail

I swam with shoals of silver fish and followed the humpbacked whale

I heard the captain of his crew shouting “Ship Ahoy me hearties!!!” in a ten force gale

But the wooden boat still stayed afloat, that boisterous wind did not prevail

And I watched as that chequered sail was flying its flag, from the warriors of Troy

A brave young sailor lad climbed the mast, he was only a little boy

I had turned into a mermaid and the merman made me coy

Blowing kisses in my fishy face, that started to annoy

Wooing me with pearls from oysters that shone so beautifully

But I swam away to solitude, as their advances bothered me

Sitting on a rugged rock with ideal invisibility

I was absolutely adoring my adventures meandering the salty sea

And when I was ducking and diving, dodging sharks that were around

Clandestinely crawling in between shiny seaweed that rose up from the ground

A voice was calling me from afar, and I recognised that sound 

Yes you got it!! haha, I was only dreaming so I jolted back earthbound…
