Pots, coiled ropes, orange, blue Laid, at the harbor side, waiting Waiting, for the tide, An old fishing net, laid on the concrete, A weathered sunburnt fisherman, Sitting quietly repairing holes within holes Birds perching patiently on the harbor wall, Waiting In the distance the sun dips towards the horizon Casting a light over a returning trawler The birds lift lethargically from Harbour perch, beat their wings , wheel Towards an incoming meal ticket

The Harbour
Pots, coiled ropes, orange, blue Laid, at the harbor side, waiting Waiting, for the tide, An old fishing net, laid on the concrete, A weathered sunburnt fisherman, Sitting quietly repairing holes within holes Birds perching patiently on the harbor wall, Waiting In the distance the sun dips towards the horizon Casting a light over a returning trawler The birds lift lethargically from Harbour perch, beat their wings , wheel Towards an incoming meal ticket
Again, from vivid childhood memories living in a Small Scottish fishing town
