SEA-BIRD

 SEA-BIRD

 

Clouds of fog

Mist and spray

Deep booming voice

As fog horns pray

 

Dog digging furious

Chasing gooey duck

Digs then down the beach

Poor dog is out of  luck

 

Shrill sea-bird cry

Spattering rain

Drop the main sail

Home again

This is beautiful John! You characterized different elements here.....hopefully I get this right thou! :) I always wondered what it was like out on the open sea....sailing so freely with nothing but the cool breeze along your cheek & birds flying ever so delicate in the air....then wondering what it would be like to fly like a bird....again so free, so remarkably free! To open your wings & feel the cool crisp air flowing through your feathers!

Sorta takes you drifting off into a dream....I really enjoyed this write John! You have such brilliant talent! :)

What an enchanting little poem! Of course anything to do with the sea enchants me. LOL But this truly was a delightful read. You painted a vivid scene with your well chosen words.
