Premium Member Amidst Their Wilderness of Blue

I remember the day as I stood on the pier
From beyond the point the trawler drew near
Weeks away amidst their wilderness of blue
A crew so brave in their quest to do

Berthing was simple as they had done so before
As I await in anticipation where the fish are stored
Basket after basket, many species graced with ice
Their quota now declared as they await the best price

Smiling faces now radiate all around
So successful from their new found fishing grounds
To their local they celebrate their catch
Back home safely in family attach

On this day as I stand on the pier
Beyond the point no trawler draws near
Weeks away amidst their wilderness of blue
A crew so brave, back on land worries grew

Premium Member A Cry For Help

My name is Peter the Pelican
I'm nothing special at all
I fly around as I'm supposed to
But this day I was close to a fall

Every day when I take to the skies
They are blue and sometimes grey
But this day I never imagined
That my bluey seas would decay

Oozing from metal giants
Now appearing after millions of years
Mans honey as they seem to be happy
Every find I hear all their cheers

One day their tears turned to shouts
For much of it was getting away
My blue was turning to a distasteful mix
In the place where I always played

One day without a care in the world
As I dived for a meal one morn
On surfacing I struggled to respond
Splashing I became so worn

My feathers were not responding
I'm drifting close to the shore
Amid a sea of thickening black
I sense the closing of my pores

What little strength I have left
As I lie in decaying kelp
I flap my wings and hope in my heart
Someone hears a cry for help
