Gerry's Song (Lyric) by ALChemy
Farewell me bonny lass To thee I tip me glass I foond me a new luve on the open sea I set me sails full mast I'm goin' and I'm goin' fast The devil's got his hooves stuck deep in me I've goot some seamen at me stern and I have taken the bow and we've been ridin' the waves of ecstacy The tide has taken it's turn and to me mates I've made a vow that I will never dock again in thee

Up the ladder: Coventry nights
Down the ladder: the rugby cheer

I say this only because poemranker has corrupted me: "Sounds gay."

It is gay.

Nice. The second-to-last line tripped me up, but for a poem meant to be read in the accent of Groundskeeper Willie, that's no biggie.

PS-I'm glad you're posting. I was afraid we'd scared you off it.

Thanks. He's just got a bit part in the story I started writing but he's already one of my favorite characters. I think everyone should try to write a book at least once in thier lives whether they suck at it or not. It's good for the soul.

I'm not scared, just a bit lazy.

After all those voyages, rollin' on the sea, my laddie comes sailin' back to me. Was it with she or with he, he'd rather be? In India or California? No matter, long as my laddie's commin' back to me.
