A Poem from the Jetty Views Collection
If I Were to Observe - Viewed 1053 Times
David Devaney
Website
April 10, 2005
What is now it that I might see,
if I were to observe.
True life here passing silently
no master does it serve.
Palm fronds do rustle in the breeze
the tides do ebb and flow.
Children in the playground climb,
no sorrow do they know.
Work crew sheriff designates
do rake and move about.
Red vested doing what they’re told
amends for being out.
As freighters tween the jetty’s pass,
a tugboat left and right.
The dawn does touch the Texas coast
now gone the dark of night.
This beauty seen most everywhere
observed and taken in.
It’s only when we patient watch
that life does now begin.
