Pirate's of PK


Hell's Gate By Rhonda Ericksen:







I thought I would share some photo's that Rhonda has taken over the years at Possium Kingdom (PK). Our family has been going out to PK for close to a decade and a half, she has many more photo's of sunsets -she needs to make a blog of sunsets. I dedicate this blog to the Ericksen's & the Hayley's.

The Pirate's of Pk

We’ve come to steal back our souls from “Hell’s Gate,” floating on our boats with no fear after a long eight years. Drinking our bloody mary’s and six-pack of beers. Cheering and hollering as the night closes in. With the beer and wind blowing our freedom and flags in mid-wind; higher than hell making our wake, open up “Hell’s Gate,” so Bryan and Rita can blow kisses of sin while the Rain Man’s playing tunes of “Pissin in the Wind.”

Watch out on deck - Mike and Bryan’s throwing swords and swearing at each end. Walking the plank and never wanting the night to end. Rhonda and Jenece bearing their ends and jumping in. Freeing the souls of six Pirate’s of “Hell’s Gate.” Our freedom is won through the water and wind.
-Jenece Austin

I wrote this poem 5 years ago.
