MEOW LIKE A PIRATE

Oh, the blithery, blathery pirate, (His name, I believe, is Claude),
His manner is sullen and irate, And his humor is vulgar and broad.
He may cast you adrift in a rowboat, (He has no reaction to tears)
Or put you ashore without NO boat, On an island and leave you for years!
by Shel Silverstein

Cap'n Maggy set out to sea, one morning dark and dank,
with Zoey below decks, trussed 'n' tied 'n' ready to walk the plank!
Aye, aye, cried Zoey, this cannot be, I'll give you a trunk full o'gold.
Avast! cried Maggy, you tell me a lie and one that is quite big and bold!
I'll swab the decks and hoist the sails, and be your mate fast and true,
Aaaar, my matey, Maggy replied... that simply will not do...

  5. How cute!

    I didn't know about the Pirate day, but I did manage to get a good name!

    'Skull Crusher Neck Snapper Nellie'
    With a name like that, I'm sure I can rescue Zoey.
