Sitting by the River
Seagulls soar and pigeons fly,
Sharing one huge cloud-streaked sky.
While they swoop and scavenge, I
Sit watching them in flight.
Walkers with their dogs stroll by;
Joggers pass, their heads held high
And in repose, I wonder why
This brings me such delight.
With my pencil, I can try
To get on paper, thoughts that my
Perceptions let me amplify
When I sit down and write.
