I offer you a poem by Mary Jane Carr in honor of this day.......
Pirate Wind
The autumn wind's a pirate,
Blustering in from sea;
With a rollicking song, he sweeps along,
Swaggering boist'rously.
His skin is weather-beaten;
He wears a yellow sash,
With a handkerchief red about his head.
And a bristling black mustache.
He laughs as he storms the country,
A loud laugh and a bold;
And the trees all quake and shiver and shake,
As he robs them of their gold.
The autumn wind's a pirate,
Pillaging just for fun;
He'll snatch your hat as quick as that,
And laugh to see you run!
by
Mary Jane Carr
I've celebrated the day as best I can, and even inflected the speak when I could.
Happy day to all the evil pirate scum of the world.........
