This form ( Sea Shanty ) is new to me and this took too much time for me to write.
Even I’m not good in this form, I wish, you’ll like this poem …
“
Shantyman (solo) : We, sailors sail together
All (refrain) : Sail together!
Sail together!
Shantyman (solo) : We, sailors sail together
All (refrain) : Sail together!
Sail together!
Shantyman (solo) : While seasons after season come
All (refrain) : Storms or tides, we welcome
Shantyman (solo) : We neither fear nor take leave
All (refrain) : Whether we all come to grief
Shantyman (solo) : Yeah! And we sail together
All (refrain) : Sail together!
Sail together!
Shantyman (solo) : Nor we worry about weather
All (refrain) : Blessed by our heavenly Father
Shantyman (solo) : We work,we sail
All (refrain) : Nor we quarrel,true pals
Shantyman (solo) : And we sail together
All (refrain) : Sail together!
Sail together!

I have written lullabies, even a different kind of sea fairing poem, but not yet a shanty.
I think you captured the spirit of the sailors well.
I hope you continue to write everyday for National Poetry Month. Continued success!
Thank you 🙂
And all the best to you for new challenges..
