POEM TITLE

Beyond Belief

POEM

Was upon a gloomy night

Whilst i was having a pint

Was told a tale beyond belief

Me eyes were bulging

me mouth dropped open

me ears must be lying to me

This old sailor the age of 103

Said of all the things in the 7 seas

All 7 of them he had seen

That greatest darkness on sea

Was right here at the lobster pot

“Surrounding you and me”

I felt a chill run up me spine

I swear with me own two eyes

It was still hard to believe

The way he laughed and disappeared

Will always haunt in my dreams
