Old boats Docked in the harbor Their engines still And all sails down They rise— and fall Then rise— and fall again With the tides From dawn to dusk Throughout the night Yet stay where they are It is dead winter— With the air very cold The waters nearly frozen And there’s nowhere to go Or nowhere to go Where they haven’t been before A fine— white snow Just drops from the sky In silence Not comment On a vacant sea |

Ahhhh, but the commercial fishermen and women still return to the sea in the winter. A lovely description of a place I have visited many times. |
