Sammiscribbles weekend writing prompt #236 Jolly Jack

Old Jack he was a sailor

wore a suit of Navy blue

he’d sailed on all the seven seas

from New York to Timbuktu

and when he went home he’d tell stories

but most of them weren’t true.

    What does it matter, I’m sure his tales were all the better for it! Well done.
