The Tempest
The tempest
On that huge deck!
Lavishly drank up to the neck,
Making a lot of fun,
Fillips and fancies began to run,
Even melancholy devoured big pegs,
Tavern was empty, he was asking for pegs,
Titanic was sailing in full rythm,
Frolicsome fair feet dancing in rythm,
Laughing happily, cracking live prank,
Lost in merriments, lavishly drank,
No worry for future, no thought of past,
No mind on time, that was running fast,
Singing and dancing all the way,
Alas! Next moment all was taken away,
Fancies, fillips, and frolicsome movement,
All was gone within a moment,
It was pleasant, and so pleasant,
It became rough as venomous serpent,
In full fury spit its venom,
All it looks like wicked demon,
It came a furious tempest,
The best of sailors tried their best,
To save Titanic,
From eternal rest,
Strong billows roaring over the head,
Panic and havoc everywhere spread.
Every thing gone with the wind,
But no help to bewildered mind,
Those who were singing now began to cry,
The big vessel shivering, as a leave that was dry.
What is to happen, always happens,
We are helpless, when ordained by heavens,
No fun, no music on the deck,
Everyone had left, Titanic was to wreck,
tempest had gone, but Titanic was sunk,
The songs no more echo, that were sung,
Death hovers in the ocean, in the icy water,
Where out of wreckage,
torn out clothes flatter,
Rescuers came with small boats,
Calling on breathing ones, at full throats,
Picking those ones who had still breath,
To rescue life and to defeat death.
It had been happening for ages,
Misfortunes recover heavy wages,
But all the evils,
With stout devils,
Could never overpower,
Ever washed away by a shower,
Poured from heaven by the gods,
Beating up devils with heavy rods.
