Peoples Poet
With Clipper Ventures we have all been,
Many things have we seen
A few line about all the crew I will tell,
For some it does not bode well

Our skipper is Mike
And we think he's all right
Fast asleep in his bunk you will find him
Be it morning noon or night.

Now Mark is our mate,
And the girls think he is a hunk
But at the first sign of trouble
He hides in his bunk

Rodney Oh Rodney,
Always ready with a story,
They are daily now
Just like Jack and Aurie

Sarah she's our naught nurse
And its great until she's Mum
Because in the kitchen
She gets highly strung

Roger, he is our keenest climber
He's got all the gear
But some of us are not sure
If the tall things he does fear

Steve
is the ship Psychologist
Three weeks with us
And now he is an escapologist

Caroline is the girl
Who brought her thermal G-string
Every now and then
You hear it go PING!

Chris
Is our freshed faced Uni student
He's up to anything
So long as it's not prudent

From down under we have Greg
An Assie
With kayak and cheese
His outlook is always posi

Matt is the man
Whose conquered all those peeks
But God
His socks don't half reek

At dinner time in the galley
Jeff will be found
Hanging around with a clean plate
Second helpings bound

And last but not least
A man who has performed many feats
Up the mast or under the sink
Young Jim the ships company does complete

But what about the peoples poet
I hear you cry
Well he's done bugger all
Except be wry
