I woke up this morning, restless,
Then decided to go for a walk.
I walked along the marina,
Among the boats queued in the dock.
I witnessed hungry seagulls,
Stealing roadkill from a hawk.
Saw an old woman at the bait shop,
Her hanky tucked into her frock.
I felt myself feeling weary,
While passed by a high school jock.
Who knows how long I’d wandered,
I couldn’t see a clock…
I looked for a spot to rest a bit,
Then suddenly spied a beckoning rock…
The moment I took comfort there,
I felt the universe talk.
