The Keepers of the Quay
Majestically, they stand perched.
Arrivals and departures, they see.
Carefully guarding their home;
The keepers of the quay.
Their hover maneuvers astound
All that happen to see.
Maintaining their height and gracefulness;
The keepers of the quay.
On beaches they’re searching for food.
To people, annoying as can be.
Seagulls just trying to live,
The keepers of the quay
