The Sparrow's Tale
A Round-Robin in Rhyme, Written at Family Time
We dabbled here in limericks.
Two generations tried technique
And wrote these rhymes, with tongue in cheek.
A pirate, Jack Sparrow was he.
His ship was a catastrophe.
The makeup he wore,
Your mom would abhor,
But he lures all the ladies with glee.
This lunatic wild buccaneer,
With many a pierce in his ear,
Who seemed uncontrolled,
Had a heart filled with gold
That reduced other pirates to fear.
He followed the ghost ship, "Black Pearl,"
Way past the far end of the world.
His friends, courage showed,
Forgetting "The Code,"
But he didn't end up with the girl!
So when will the pirate return
To embark on another sojourn?
When the DVD tales
Are reduced for quick sales,
Then Jack Sparrow's hiatus adjourns.

I like that line "But he lures all the ladies with glee." I know I liked him :) Great poem.
This is great. Johnny Depp is one of my favorites and the Pirates Trilogy was great but the ending left it open for another movie. I hope they write another one. Great job!
Great job...one of my sons dressed as Jack Sparrow for Halloween.....scarey, huh? Nice job.
