Waiting At Pier 11
Helicopters hover;
Boats bounce on the waves.
Seagulls swoop and pigeons strut;
A toddler misbehaves.
Tourists take their selfies;
Cars in traffic crawl.
New construction blocks the sky
With buildings thin and tall.
Water laps the pilings;
Clouds conceal the sun.
Another session waiting
For the ferry has begun.
