The Harbour

Lorna



There are no carpets on the floor

So if a fork falls

There is a formidable noise

I guess that doesn't matter

For a little Monday meal

Just the two of us....

On a Friday night

Full to the brim with people

There must be quite a din

If one likes that kind of thing

For now let's just slip 

To the table at the back

Where barely a soul passes by

And in our harbour

Be two much traveled ships

That in that harbour's darkness hide

    Oh to have and share such a place. With a somebody who knows me well and needs few spoken words to let me know they are 'with' me.

    I love it when a poet's words draw me deep into their atmosphere and release my personal longings. Needless to say, yours is great poetry.

    to toast, our whispered truth
    of life's gifted hideouts
    and those we're lucky enough
    to find and share,
    our quirky escapades with..
    thanks for sharing,
    I like the ambience, your poem was hinting at

    Ships in the night never meet, but maybe, just maybe, they did.
