Topic: folk song
Thought i`d have a go at writing a traditional folk song using traditional themes.
Not sure if it`s working,but here goes.
We cast off at dawn
on the morning tide
as we sail off
on that november day
leaving the blue
for the cold and the gray
heading south
to that x on our map
with only our hopes
and sextant to show the way
eight days out
the weather it turned
the waves grew higher
and the sea it churned
with sails destroyed
by the vicious wind
stores lost overboard
to the angry sea
leaving us adrift
and praying to god
