Shout Out to Talk Like a Pirate Day

 


Arrr Mateys, not sure how we missed it but last Friday was the official celebration of Talk Like a Pirate Day, created by two friends in 1995 as a day allowing everyone to channel their inner Jack Sparrow. Turns out we can learn healthy messages from pirate lore after all. ⚓

A teacher-friend asked his middle school students to come up with a pirate-themed short poem that contains a pearl of advice from our buccaneer friends. One student came up with this one...

Ahoy! Jewels, gold, and silver

bring not the real pleasure; 

Making healthy life choices

'tis life's best treasure!
