Dark Dock
Dark Dock

the lone light
hanging heavy
in the night dew
from the bow ring
searches its beam
fractured
‘cross the chop water
for the dark dock
for home

Perfect. What more can I say?
I love the subtle internal rhymes, and for some reason the line “cross the chop water” really appeals to me.
I really like the title. You’ve captured a vivid image in the stark bright/dark contrast.
…there is nothing so pleasurable as the dark dock lone light..
The dock light has a certain lonely poignancy. You have captured that essence!
Bloody brilliant!
Absolutely love your writing and art!
