Premium Member The Dinosaurs At Webb Dock
Early morning and the gantry cranes at Webb Dock look like long necked dinosaurs lining up to drink from the river - and the sky is aglow as it might have been when tinged by the first hint of that asteroid slamming into Yucatan on the other side of the world 66 million years ago. This is 2025 and no...

Premium Member Sitting on the dock of the bay
I was sitting on the dock of the bay listening to a song when Otis Redding happened to come walking along. He said, "You watching the ships roll in?" I said, "Yeah, and then watching ‘em roll away again." He said, "That stuff's really dug by some. I think it’s all pretty much ho-hum." ...

On The Dock
The dark wood stretching from the shore, nearby a rack filled with long oars, ducks swim nearby in a long row, towards the rocky beach they go. Underfoot the dock shifts and sways, responding to the gentle waves, a little boy peers as the fish zip underneath with a tail swish. Old tires posted on each side, so that boat hulls will not collide, and...

Premium Member Sunrise at the Dock
As twilight’s veil begins to gently lift, The fading grays give way to golds and blues. And colors mark the waves as shadows shift, Reflective of a new horizon’s hues. Yet gazes fixed on distant unseen springs, Omit the moment’s splendor cast aside. While thoughts are lost on what tomorrow brings, The fleeting now is taken by the tide. But wakeful...

Hickory Dickory Dock The captain ran up the deck, When the storm rocked the ship. The sailors swayed losing grip.

Hickory Dickory Dock
Hickory Dickory Dock, The mouse hushed up the clock. But Cuckoo caught him by his tail, Now mouse is serving time in jail. Until once more the clock will chime, And with both hands, the march of time Then mouse might leave his prison cell, However, only time will tell. When parole, could be his saviour, Quick release, for good behaviour. ...

Boy At the End
My Huskie watches the sailboats From the end of our dock He cannot swim But still considers himself king of the lake Not unlike his chase of robins That flutter from one tree to another Looking down and over their shoulder Singing to his snarl I see my twenty-something visiting son Sitting the same the next day At the end of the dock No boats but...

Dock
Dock It was deep in my heart. I want what you have. With satisfactions in our time while away. Sleep for all time. With things that take a long time for the profession. Travel within you with the balance around you. With harmonies that complete your visual pleasure. I hear the smell,the light,the sounds....
