Drabble: Impatience

Disclaimer: Disney owns Jack and the Black Pearl.

For this week's "Patience" Drabble Challenge at BPS.



For ten years she has felt nothing but the burn of desire for
eternally cursed gold. Not the embrace of wind in her sails. Not the
caress of the sea on her hull.

For ten years she has flung herself like a wounded leviathan against
the snarling seas. She has lashed fortresses and towns and tall ships
with the screaming fire of her cannon in her search for the gold that
calls. And she has wept tears that rise like banks of fog for him.

She has endured.

Now the curse is lifted, and she has no more patience. In the joy of
salt spray and the kiss of ocean breezes, she flies to him. What
Jack Sparrow has always been for the Black Pearl is freedom.

There is so much that can be done with Jack/Pearl

I did a poem back in April for a challenge on BPS. http://www.livejournal.com/users/caliscrapnmom/25867.html
