Shipwrecked

Shipwrecked The iceberg was hidden in the fog This never got into the Captain's log Because Passengers and crew were lost Overboard the ship they were tossed All but just two were drowned The rest would never be found The water was oh so cold But two souls were oh so bold Struggling they made it to the shore They were cold down to the core Then lying quietly in the sand So thankful to be on land The sun so hot upon their skin It warmed them all the way within And gaining strength they looked around But knowing they would never be found Searching and finding trees laden with fruit And also a pirates chest filled with loot Finally at peace they sat down and ate Both of them resigned to their fate.
