NaplPoWriMo 2020 Day 19 -- Poem, A Morning at the Pier
At the Pier
Here I am sitting
Here I sit dangling my legs
On this pier my thoughts are born
My dreams are wished, feet get washed
My wishes disclosed
COVID 19, go away
For Rainbow's end Pot of Gold
Food on table and food line
And my feet get washed
The fishes swim over them
I don't need soap--wouldn't work
Big fish I'll grab with my net
And then?
Wave goodbye to fish and ships
Dog glad to have me come home
Make us some food fish and chips
Jim's Happy Beagle, Adi

Well done!
We all wish that the virus will vanish.
Hopefully the virus will dissipate soon!
Virus be gone!
I like the whimsical feel of the opening stanza, Jim, and the play on words in ‘My dreams are wished, feet get washed’ and ‘Wave goodbye to fish and ships … Make us some food fish and chips’.
Bye Bye 19.
wished and washed. I always love sitting on a pier. Thanks for writing to my prompt. I 'll try and figure out how to link it up late if I can. I've been so busy lately with schooling at home and cooking for a large crew I've had NO time for art or poetry. Hope that will change soon - I haven't even posted the new challenge yet - seems like people have enough inspiration. We will see if it catches on, it not, it's not a big deal. :)
As long as we can wish and wash, all will be well!
