Henry Tudor, Lost at Sea

As mentioned in a previous post, I'm in a songwriting group called the DIAMC. We take it in turns to set a monthly prompt and then we get together online to share our work. There are no rules governing how closely the brief is to be followed, and it's always interesting to hear how different members have interpreted the task.

This month's theme was Displacement - to take a fictional or historical event and move it to another location. I decided to displace Henry VIII - completely, so I could write an alternative history of the six wives he never had.
