April is here again and that means its National Poetry Writing Month and for my second year I’ll be joining the 30 poems in 30 days challenge hosted by napowrimo.net. For this challenge, a poetry prompt will be provided daily during the month of April and if I can keep on track I’ll achieve the 30 poems in 30 days goal. So enough chatter…let’s go! It’s time for NaPoWriMo!

Where Did the Captain Go?
Hey! Ho! Hey! Ho! Where did the captain go?
We looked up high, we looked down low,
He wasn’t anywhere we know.
Hey! Ho! Hey! Ho! Where did the captain go?
We looked up high, we looked down low,
He wasn’t there, he didn’t show.
Hey! Ho! Hey! Ho! Where did the captain go?
We looked up high, we looked down low,
We haven’t seen him since tide low.
Hey! Ho! Hey Ho! Where did the captain go?
We looked up high, we looked down low,
Low and behold we found him dead in the cargo.
Hey! Ho! Hey Ho! The captains dead, who made it so?
We looked up high, we looked down low,
Nobody’s aboard that we didn’t know.
Hey! Ho! Hey! Ho! Who of us killed Captain Crow?
We looked up high, we looked down low,
We found nothing except the captain’s dough.
Hey! Ho! Hey! Ho! What do you know! Spread that dough round and round, pull that anchor, and off we go!
Well I struggled, but there it is.
Be well,
Monty

A strange tale but it had rhythm and rhyme and it flowed like the tide!
