Early sun’s waves tease old harbour wall

Angrier surf greets dark summer squall

Seagulls glide, loud sentinel cry

Shadows of clouds in painted blue sky

Silent sea wakes in mists a’ dawning

Rushing sea-voice herald sounds of morning

Wind bells of sea gently shake souls arising

Pebble dashed rhythm forms words inspiring

Crabs sidewind, fearing small splashing feet

When the worlds of children and shoreline meet

A poem has found me this day …

 

Sunlight pirouettes off the fisherman’s stand

Deftly casts his rod with a flick of the hand

Praying the sea to give up a catch

He watches and waits, old pipe and match

Sea- weathered brow seeks fin-rippled sea

Rewarding his solitude, fresh fish for tea

No gravity of thought and a weightless mind

Shuffling home fearing ties that bind”
