A collection of tanka poems mostly based on certain periods of my life.

In the waning years of the Golden Age of Piracy, seventeen-year-old Elias Thorn dreams of escaping the quiet merchant life forced upon him in the English town of Thorn's Bay. When a devastating storm washes ashore a mysterious sea chest containing an ancient journal, strange maps, and references to a forgotten legend known only as The Devil's Choir, Elias finds himself hunted by a determined Royal Navy officer and drawn into a world of pirates, hidden havens, sea shanties, and dangerous folklore. Rescued by the infamous Captain Mad Finn Rackham and his eccentric crew aboard The Laughing Wench, Elias must learn the ways of the sea, earn the trust of hardened pirates, and uncover the secrets hidden within the journal. But beyond the charts of civilized waters, sailors whisper of a black ship lost to time, an organ whose haunting melody echoes across the fog, and a curse that may still linger beneath the waves. Unknown even to himself, Elias carries a legacy tied to one of history's most feared pirates-and the sea may already know his name. Adventure awaits beyond the horizon, where legends are born, stories never die, and the ocean keeps its secrets well hidden.

When you live in the town possessing the largest lake in England there is no surprise that water is thicker than blood, that water is in our bones. We all survive on it, but with the people of Bowness-on-Windermere; there was just a stronger passion to the life-preserver. My life was determined by the tides, by the ripples of the lake and the temperature of the water.
