Ilene Bauer Poet Rhyme

More Musings

Seagulls squawk and pigeons coo;
What they’re saying – I’ve no clue.
They just do what they must do
To make it in the city.

Ferries float and tugboats tug;
Friends meet up and give a hug.
Maybe readers sigh and shrug – 
More musings? ‘Tis a pity!

Still, I sit outside and write
At my favorite local site,
Gazing to my heart’s delight
At views I find so pretty…

Gershon Wolf December 9, 2021 at 5:18 PM That's actually quite a novel idea there, ilene. That is, that seagulls and pigeons do what they have to do to make it in the city. I wonder if they sell drugs and run numbers too. ~ gw

L Milton Hankins December 9, 2021 at 12:49 PM This is such a delightful poem, Ilene, calling to mind that we all have our places of inspiration. We all do what we do, and rightfully so. Good thinking; wonderful writing.
