the seafarers of old
did take to their ships
to discover new lands
on blue waters trips
vast distances they did
sail around the globe
with sails billowing
in the wind's driving lobe
neath the stars they'd chart
a course through the tides
with their ships full of cargo
stored inside the hull's hide
square riggers sailed
to lands far away
their decks and masts
plying the brine's spray
