.2. Land A-Hoy Poem by David Threadgold

.2. Land A-Hoy



Up in the cold dismal crows-nest
A man in striped shirt called out land
To a rough looking bunch of old pirates
And captain with pistol in hand

The crew had been plotting a mutiny
They hadn’t had food for a week
But now all their troubles were over
And the captains own life looked less bleak
