Sitting by the Pier by Raymond A. Foss
Gulls perched on the pilings a cormorant coursing low toward the open sea a breeze inland from the Atlantic up on the bay, sitting by the pier watching the boats, moored at rest, the people, some busy, some quiet like me a flotilla of bright kayaks slips silently by bright blue beyond the glade of masts and rigging caws of the gulls, the splash of minnows soaking up the sun sitting by the pier
