Crimson’s Creative Challenge #018 #Lazing in the sun

Forlorn boats sit upon the sand

the ebbing tide has left them stranded

their drunken masts reach for the sky

as old dead trees stand frozen lifeless

mooring buoys not joyful bobbing but

relaxing knowing a job well done

still holding fast the boatmen trust

though barnacle and weed encrusted

the hulls that lean haphazard crazy

will soon be roused from lazy slumber

when the moon from up on high

once again sends in the flooding tide

    There speaks a sailor. I love that of the buoys, knowing a job well done!
