C J Dennis - The Sailor
Work rating: Low

I`d like to be a sailor - a sailor bold and bluff -
Calling out, "Ship ahoy!" in manly tones and gruff.
I`d learn to box the compass, and to reef and tack and luff;
I`d sniff and snifff the briny breeze and never get enough.
Perhaps I`d chew tobacco, or an old black pipe I`d puff,
   But I wouldn`t be a sailor if ...
      The sea was very rough.
         Would you?
