Waiting For the Ferry

The water laps the ferry dock;
I keep my eyes upon the clock
For soon my chariot will arrive.
(We city people hate to drive!)

The schedule is accurate
And rarely strays the slightest bit.
I know that at 3:46
It will be here, so time for tix.

I open up the trusty app;
A few clicks later, it's a wrap.
I'll flash my phone and strut onboard;
A peaceful ride is my reward.
