Holiday Vacation

Entry #8

The Pirates Christmas Holiday

In the Galveston heat, the pirates Lafitte

Fixed their braids for the Christmas parade.

Their crews stowed their sabers to dance with the neighbors

While the band on the Strand gaily played.

Their merry old auntie sang a naughty sea shanty

‘Bout voyages and mermaids and rum.

For some of the words she giggled and slurred

The parts that might scandalize some.

The party went on from dusk until dawn

When signals from Jean and Pierre

Called the crews to their stations, no more vacations

“It’s time we were pirating on”
