Captain Pat Hatt
and Truedessa continue to sail
the emerald
waters, in search of the mythical
island of dreams
known as Bora Bora..
   |
Under a blushing sunset
they drift
gentle ebb & flow
of the ocean waves
Captain at the
helm steady course, winds shift
steering the eerie
waters, phantom graves
Truedessa gazes
into the distant sky
creeping horizon,
a silvery moon
cat by her side
her heart softly sighs
dreaming of the
turquoise lagoon
coral reefs,
colorful fish
manta rays glide
on water wings
it is said the
heavens can hear your wish
playing on your
heart strings...
whispers echo in
the sprays of night
each rolling wave
brings a song
let us sleep under
starlight
together where we belong
hanging on for our dreams to unfold
hanging on for our stories to be told
hanging on for that handful of gold
abruptly, cat
arches his back
hissing into the
endless black sea
"Damn are we
under attack"
what is it cat ,
what do you see
pair of shiny dark
green eyes
water pounding on
the deck
thrashing body, humongous
size
clammy chill upon
our neck
giant creature ,
over 75 feet
rising his head,
planning to devour
Captain Pat, we will defeat
all hands on deck,
we fight this hour
harpoons sailing
through the air
slamming his
powerful tail
beast eyes hideous
glare
heavens open up a
shower of hail
lightning bolts
slash the sky
Truedessa &
Captain Pat fight
rhyming cat by
their side
swinging with all
their might
serpent snatches
the cat
Truedessa's bloody scream
Captain Hatt,
we'll get him back
suddenly, she
recalls a dream
Poseidon, I call upon your power
hear my plea in
the name of love, arise
with your trident,
during this hour
bring this serpent
to his demise
awakening, from the depth
of the sea
powerful striking force, upon the beast
the cat is flung
to the ship free
serpent
hisses & dives, his retreat
Poseidon speaks...
I heard your heartfelt songs of love
they echo in the caverns below
follow your hearts, the white dove
like the shining stars love will glow
smiling he
silently submerges
Truedessa
embracing Captain Pat
to Bora Bora we go
to satisfy our urge
with the amazing
rhyming cat...
hanging on for our dreams to unfold
hanging on for our stories to be told
hanging on for that handful of gold
the adventure continues....
The
gateway, to dreams
beckons our feverish pitch
venturing on with steady feet
dancing to
that driving beat
posted for dVerse - told you cat you never know...
haha - now that is a nice adventure with you, pat and the cat - glad poseidon turned up just in time...smiles
ReplyDeletethank you Claudia..it was fun to write..
Deletehaha oh a tale like no other indeed
ReplyDeleteContinued at your feed
Rather take on grumpy goo
Than that huge thing from a zoo
Good thing a God was around
To make it run away like a hound
And the poor rhyming cat
Even if a fake representation one at your mat
Had to get some drool
But he'd lick it off like a fool
His ego rised with amazing too
And oh to the gutter he could go with a view
But instead he'll just sit and smile
Now that the overgrown sardine is floor tile
As Bora Bora is still at hand
Well we search throughout the land
The cat was saved for the day
Deleteas he has so many things to say
Grumpy Goo was so much fun
as he sailed under the golden sun
until you sliced him in two
and what happened to Captain Red Shoe
perhaps, he is looking for his rum
as we continued to sail the sea
searching for those coconut trees...
Seems to be a hit
DeleteOnce more at your sand pit.
You know what is to come
By my little rhyming bum
Working on another one now
Brian is right, my ego is bigger than the size of a cow haha
Hi Pat and Cat.
DeleteTell me did you enjoy my tale
as we sailed, at least we weren't
swallowed by a giant whale..
Brian is right you are working
as I write. Hopefully, you won't
stay up all night..
Pleasant dreams...
Yeah a big smile
DeleteSure went a mile
No big fish bait
Will get us at any rate
A smile makes it worth while.
DeleteI'm glad the pen didn't make
us fish bait, that would not
be a good fate..lol..
Wait until post 900 at my sea
DeleteYou may be fish bait after all or swing from a tree lol
what are you up to at your sea
DeleteI might swing from a tree?
Would I be spunky like a monkey
Fish bait you say while I swim in a bay
sounds like it may be an interesting day
It will be interesting for all in the fray
DeleteAnd not too far away
May have to take the day off to read
As it isn't the typical affair at my feed
What an imaginative tale. Next thing we know you are going to be putting out books on Amazon too! LOL. All you need is an illustrator.
ReplyDeleteHi Mary,
DeleteThanks for the kind words. It was fun to write a bit out of my normal mode.
This is so fun!
ReplyDeleteThank you Mama Zen..
DeleteThis is so creative and magical Truedessa ~ How gallant of Poseidon to rescue you guys ~ I must say, you surprise me ~
ReplyDeleteAnd I second Mary on the suggestion ~
Hi Grace,
DeleteThanks so much..I just decided to add on to that story after Pat and his Cat's video. It sort of took a life of it's own.
smiles...so funny,
ReplyDeleteyou realize what you've started
the cat wont get enough,
his ego inflated, ha
this i am sure will continue on
i do hope you dont make us wait long
Hi Brian,
DeleteThanks for the visit always nice to see you here on my wall. Gee, I am sure the cat will have something to
say at his bay...
A wonderful respite from the normal stance. Very refreshing Trudessa. You have a great partner in trade in Pat Hatt! One gets unduly creative upon visiting Pat. Very exhaustive and realistic episodes shown. Brilliant!
