Her Queens Peter Pirates

Join us the unveiled to sail in league of a thousand galleons

Make way prancing stallions the dancing sadness of Prince Valiant

World yet left to memories for our life held in hope we stowed

We the languished of chivalry floating fellows on our paper boats

Folding notes each year may luck find what we wrote so clear

Just us boys the once lost children of cheer

Now we shout at this sea us pirates free

This day we sail the railway flying steam in her summer breeze

Bottles we sat on tides that hold our dreams if one please

For all countries of Queen our royal heart of empathy

Reporting for duty the most feared to fare her seven seas

Whispers turn cheers as wind lifts these sails of her majesty

Smallest of pirate yet seen as giants walking amongst trees

No man dare stand before us decreed of thy enemy

Wooden horse set our course blazing saddles on highways of sea mantle

Come my Phar Lap one last time for her crown and flower to our saddle

Ride with me as we take the lead of hurricanes while holding candles

So fast this vessel her tassels unravel

Hold us strong under the horizons we travel

Ghost of lost worlds we drink the wind to siege the forward fleet

Hide us Lady Venus in this mist if we be of chance

Just one kiss we shall always keep secret of romance

Harmony that will lead us from harm to safe land

Gardens to marvel at she who holds time in sand

Ride with us my sea lords fellow travellers with no land

None do return for sailors hear the waters hail sent to each man

Lustful Alyssa her abyss calls all to command

Captain my Captain at your side we general unto the fold

Towers we stroll past in barrell rolls shaking souls flyby these spires of control

Patched firefox sown to our soul with seal

Naval fleets we need no streets just open fields of teal

Bring home what care take of our love down to despair

Push oceans away to reclaim graves so sailors who stay no longer stare

Longbeards fear that each passing of year shall see recycles of duality

Silverwares of Spaniard it dashes upon the tears of whales where mother keeps thee

Tapestry of magic sown to her blanket this Emperor Sea

Raise these curtains my pirates so all can see the sail of her dragon tail

Flailing in gusts with regaled trust hair wailing her layers of charming worlds waving her flail

Fingerpainting the art of sign writing hearts sending mail to sky that replies in trails

Milky-way rain her sparkles burst universal colours of blue

Confetti embers to remember our surrender forever as we kiss moons

Arms like oars we stand to soar the evermore catching any passing typhoon

Our Lieutenant Dan fights on lands where he still stands those stripes do captain him to task

He sits above and screams to every dream of life that passed

Wielding sword he cuts the air to dance with midnight

Challenging all who dare to rule his world come out and fight

Duelling rooms upon his window sill that mask we hide the fool

Speaks to God and sea come rescue me diving to her pool

Spools of twine he winds time to cast out this dying spine

I held a boys life and put man to knife is this all you have planned for me he asked

Questions to our reflection never asked until he sat upon that highest mast

Fairest of maidens don’t fade this day from my heart

I cant see heaven for I lost my spirit throwing empty bottles to the dark

What answers return as we curse the dirt of these our falling doves

Who wish for worlds to come undone only to give all of life for one more hug from Mum

Does she see us true pirates of life within her fairy eyes

Rub our bellies never they be empty gift your butterfly inside

Guide us dear starlight our crying cliffside

Find us fair maiden we hear you call us to arrive

Our only treasure be this love we hold so tight

We pledge our iron to stand at the edge with you ready to dive

If these oceans were flowers I would spend every hour reaching to all that grew

Take of one to give this world my colour of emotions you drew

Rolling fields in endless bloom I see of you in every bird that glides my baby blue

No delay we raise all flags that we gallop so gallantly under

Hunters of thunder tearing storms apart in wonder

We stand to her morning light embrace our open arms as we bask

Taste of our skin with makeup brush to make blush this child take rest of dark

Each of us humble of craft but no charity we ask

Only what tales told us the lost clouds in forgotten sky

Heavy be our spirit as we listen for rain to visit so we may cry

Believe we did that sea shall find deed of land for all as none we leave

Years marked to wall that we call out these dreams

All of me in this star we carried so far to find our Queens

Guide our magnetic heart to where dusk be dawn of stars so true

Parting walls in waves she opens cellar doors to see us through

Purpose take side we ride with lords of time in our mariner rime

Holding sunrise we catch horizons to bring our brides a ring for her saturn eyes

Blowing clouds as sun shines no awning drawn over my love of dawning sky

Surfing fountains down mountains our sight be Sanctuary for morning light

One way causeways the running days crash rainbow waves into greyscales of sight

Blind once of no sky now night partitioned the raining skittles for vision

Rolling heads rowing water beds our marbles to marvel Mothers nova collision

Trends to ammend this schism of changing tides to new mission

With crayons like moons we time write in sign of lunar kingdoms

Lost in change our pennies thrown to wishes left in waves

Kaleidoscope days falling flakes of golden rain

Night be not our ending day we slay worlds with words on every page

Our headstock from Woodstock us rock gods with socks on

Still all day in pj's taking stage to front row of life well played

This sea to our sovereignty be free the moshing frog

Drop zone lily pads we land on

Jumping ponds landing helipads from top bunks

Still old these branches holding chances of new lines

They fall with no sound ancient ones turned log

They spoke with breath to give life we never forgot

We left notes of love in a crest shaped of heart to their chest

Here I scribe my life to encapsulate time in eternities lament

 Walk the plank if ye be too old to set sail for Arabian nights or grails quest

Honour be our flying Lion that roaring pride of her Majesty's best

Casualties of lacking fantasy rummaging the discouraging Wonka liquorice distillery

Time to tuck in Teddies as we launch the stars as our artillery

Solemn be thy soul in segregation of ones denial

Our best yet found for no age be limitation to indulge the wild

War of inner worlds my enemy in all mirrors I hide

Breaching self contained trauma files blackhat declassified

 

We the believers of wishes given to relieve children still standing guard

Sleep not all who be young as we set fire to worlds and raise the alarm

If no heroes avail themselves to quest

None be left to fight for those we lost to death

Comical it be this life to believe beyond what is seen

Comic pages saved days of hiding away now with haste they fray with age

Final chapters draw rapture this dying world throwaways

Last page sees our heroes yet drawn he turned to save another day

Graves to illustrate our capes of crusades we left in yesterday

Symbol now just a vigil the boy from the Emerald city we laid to rest

That green crystal and that which shaped to an S upon his chest

We put his flag on our back to find our lost red kite

Still the smallest shall answer any call to stand against tide

We fear not the dark as we have sunrise on our side

Last of the all spark holder of sun and light

Warrior inside holding up fists to fight

No shadow cast out the exiled for they shall find their wild

Onward to victory his child
