<strong><span style="color: #660000; font-size: large;">" A Pirate Yule"</span></strong><br />
<br />
<em>by Mimi Foxmorton</em><br />
<em>c. 2006</em><br />
<em>(with a half hearted apology to Clement C. Moore)</em><br />
<br />
<em>~For me Grandchildren...who can read faster'n I can write.</em><br />
<br />
'Twas the night before Yule<br />
<br />
And all through the ship<br />
<br />
The storm it were blowin'<br />
<br />
The mast it did dip.<br />
<br />
The bo'lin's were hung<br />
<br />
All in knots and afire<br />
<br />
Somethin' had to be done<br />
<br />
Or we all would expire.<br />
<br />
The Pirates were gathered <br />
<br />
All 'round their brave Cap'n<br />
<br />
An' wondered out loud<br />
<br />
How could this be happ'nin'?<br />
<br />
There were pirates with hooks<br />
<br />
And pirates in patches<br />
<br />
Then from aloft came th' cry<br />
<br />
"Batt'n down th' hatches!"<br />
<br />
When off t' me larb'ard<br />
<br />
There arose such a spout<br />
<br />
I knocked back me rum<br />
<br />
Tried t' figure it out.<br />
<br />
<em>(author note: They're MY grandchildren I can say 'rum' iffen I want.)</em><br />
<br />
Quick up the ratlin's<br />
<br />
I climbed a bit rash<br />
<br />
But fell t' th' poopdeck<br />
<br />
(For I'd tangled me sash.)<br />
<br />
Th' moon on th' crest<br />
<br />
O' me new fallen booty<br />
<br />
Gave me pause t' be frightened<br />
<br />
But I knew me duty.<br />
<br />
When what t' me wanderin' <br />
<br />
One eye should appear?<br />
<br />
But Neptune, himself,<br />
<br />
He were sheddin' a tear.<br />
<br />
"Oh why," he did ask me<br />
<br />
"Must this world be so thick<br />
<br />
With man against man<br />
<br />
Like they don't care a lick?"<br />
<br />
More rapid than grapeshot<br />
<br />
Our misdeeds he did name<br />
<br />
And he cursed and he shouted<br />
<br />
As he called them by name:<br />
<br />
There's pillagin' & plunderin'<br />
<br />
And not mindin' your Mothers.<br />
<br />
There be judgin' yer neighbor<br />
<br />
I can think of some others!<br />
<br />
There be hatred and selfishness<br />
<br />
They all are quite crude.<br />
<br />
But the worst of them all's<br />
<br />
When ye be just plain rude!<br />
<br />
It be up to you to do somethin'<br />
<br />
Ye be charged wit' th' call!<br />
<br />
Now pull up your boot straps<br />
<br />
And stand pirate-tall!<br />
<br />
As dry-heaves that before<br />
<br />
Salmagundi meat pie<br />
<br />
When it greets an old pirate<br />
<br />
Who's only one eye.<br />
<br />
<em>(author note: Oh, deal with it. None of us ever knew what that stanza meant anyway.)</em><br />
<br />
So, up t' th' crow's nest<br />
<br />
Like a seagull I flew<br />
<br />
Wit' me cutlass pulled out<br />
<br />
An' me hat all askew.<br />
<br />
<em>(author note: Aye, th' very hat what yer Grandpappy Slappy give t’ me!)</em><br />
<br />
And then in a twinklin'<br />
<br />
It came unto me<br />
<br />
I knew that I had <br />
<br />
To make others see.<br />
<br />
That bein' a Pirate's<br />
<br />
A most noble call<br />
<br />
But there's rules t' be followed<br />
<br />
Even in a great squall.<br />
<br />
You can't do what ye likes<br />
<br />
Wit'out followin' Th' Code<br />
<br />
For iffen ye do<br />
<br />
Neptune's wrath it will bode.<br />
<br />
Wear your Pirate garb proudly<br />
<br />
And do all your work<br />
<br />
Keep your cabin all tidy<br />
<br />
Don't act like a jerk!<br />
<br />
Th' Cap'n's th' boss<br />
<br />
Misbehave? I don't buy it.<br />
<br />
I run a tight ship<br />
<br />
Mutiny? Don't ye tries it.<br />
<br />
I explained on that night<br />
<br />
Pirate mates work together<br />
<br />
For sharing yer work<br />
<br />
Makes it light as a feather.<br />
<br />
You could STILL be a pirate<br />
<br />
And ne'er be tame<br />
<br />
Play jokes on your Mum<br />
<br />
And be not at all lame.<br />
<br />
The Pirates they thought<br />
<br />
This was a great plan<br />
<br />
To help one another <br />
<br />
When caught in a jam.<br />
<br />
They agreed that they always<br />
<br />
Would follow the Code<br />
<br />
Be the best Pirates e'er<br />
<br />
Help shoulder the load.<br />
<br />
For even a Pirate<br />
<br />
If he takes a good look<br />
<br />
Will see that occasionally<br />
<br />
He needs a friend's hook<br />
<br />
To help and to guide him<br />
<br />
When he's far out t' sea<br />
<br />
Or searchin' for treasure<br />
<br />
Where e'er that might be.<br />
<br />
Then Neptune came forward<br />
<br />
His eyes all a twinkle<br />
<br />
The sea settled down<br />
<br />
There were nary a wrinkle.<br />
<br />
I'm proud of ye all<br />
<br />
Said the great, huge wet man<br />
<br />
Ye'll give it your best<br />
<br />
And do what ye can.<br />
<br />
Be proud! <br />
<br />
Be a Pirate!<br />
<br />
An' ne'er take a fall<br />
<br />
For bein' a Pirate's the' best thing of all!<br />
<br />
The Pirate's rushed forward <br />
<br />
To say their farewell<br />
<br />
And meeting his eye<br />
<br />
I gave out a yell.<br />
<br />
"Me thanks for yer honesty<br />
<br />
And remindin' the others<br />
<br />
To be kind to your family<br />
<br />
Yer sisters and brothers."<br />
<br />
He gave me a nod<br />
<br />
I'll ne'er forget<br />
<br />
A changed Pirate I was<br />
<br />
On that ye can bet.<br />
<br />
For you see 'twas that night<br />
<br />
On the Eve of Great Yule<br />
<br />
I learned I could be<br />
<br />
A Pirate and cool.<br />
<br />
Then we heard him exclaim<br />
<br />
As he sunk from our sight<br />
<br />
Merry Yule to ye Pirates<br />
<br />
Have a magical night.<br />
<br />
<em>(author note: Now hands me that there tankard an' git t' yer bunks!)</em><br />
