- I lay on my back in the tall grass & looked up at the blue sky. The fluffy white cloud above me resembled my grandpa eating an ice cream cone. A tear slid down the corner of my eye
- for he was the last of the true blood Irish pirates. And an ice cream lover, aye. But more than six feet of earth and a trip cross the River Styx separated grandpa and I. His eye

- dancing polar bears that circled the crew. The Ice Pirate Captain looked at Blue Beard, Black Beard, and Stinky Beard, with a gaze that spoke of his ties with the otherworldly dime

Mysterious and morbid. I like the mythical nature of the ice pirate's eye.
