Rough Sailor (A Cry For Help) by harrysterol(m): 1:41pm On Dec 19, 2014 |
Oh! My mother land, Once like the breeze of a gentleman, But, now, like the heavy-footed Oh! My mother land, I remember how it started like a war ship Heading to defeat the strong, But,now, like the boat been paddled with a tea spoon Oh! My mother land, How has the mighty fallen, Now like a sailor without a ship. Cc: laykorn Leki10 |

Lol. Harry you're murdering similies. Just that, your punctuation needs some tuning. You forgot to punctuate a line or two. Then in line two. 'Breeze of a gentleman' Can you please explain it? I am an olodo boy, I didn't really get it. Ayamlaykorn |
