The salamander pendant
By Philip O'Donnell, 2nd Year
Of shining gold and rubies
Bringing luck to all sailors
Not a voyage for common whalers
They set sail for Ireland,
Conquest on the minds of all,
A kind of a rise before the huge fall
Near the end of their voyage,
The men were informed,
By a shout from the crows-nest, of a raging storm
The salamander pendant down in the hold
Couldn’t help them with shimmering gold
The salamander pendant deep in the ships bowels
Couldn’t help ease the winds wretched howls
The salamander pendant with rubies so red
Couldn’t stop their hearts from filling with dread
The salamander pendant saw all of the dead
The salamander pendant with rubies so red
