THOUGHTS OF A POET IN THE RAIN

MAYPORT ONE

Mayport!

Clouds laying low,

grey, thick, layered cream

far out on the ocean scene;

fat roll before the jagged top,

a bear’s head amid cloud rubble

changed to dog then disappeared,

as the sun looked on and spread its sight,

split the scene, dissolved the cream, removed the night. 5/21/2012

MAYPORT TWO

Mayport!

my lover stood by the sea.

just her the sea and me;

there she sang her lover’s song. 5/21/2012
