Morgannons Moonlit Lover, A Pirate Poem

In the days before men, and ships, and greed

There lived old gods from land to sea

Commander of waves, and chaos, and breeze,

The Sea God Morgannon he ruled all of these

And every night, through the clouds and the sky

A bright white moon rose over the tide

She gleamed like the heavens, she glowed like a jewel

Lunaliah moon goddess, beauty bright and cruel

The sea god he watched her, every night from below

He brought giant waves, to crash upon her glow

An ocean of dark blue, and a moon of silver light

The persistent sea god made waves to reach her height

The day the sea stopped churning, the day the ocean calmed

Was the day Lunahlia moon goddess finally heard Morgannons song

Struck by his power, she sparkled with glee

She said, “I must send something down too, all for thee.”

The Sea God he heard her, he gave all his trust

Moments later Lunahlia sent down some moondust

It sparkled white and blue, fell to the sea like stars

Morgannon caught it in seafoam, he gave her his heart

It became their tradition, that on the full moon

She sent her moondust, into his ocean blue

That last fateful day, when gods left this earth

The lovers left their mark, by way of birth

Lunahlia’s moondust, Morgannon’s seafoam,

They created five sirens, who called the ocean home

When lovers departed, and gods ceased to be,

New magic came to life in the daughters of the sea.
