dark and dank, the bay

man, black clouds, sooo thick

not a shorebird,  no way,  nay

in rain, on rock, seagull schtick

shades of gray, skies drop drops

jet engine roar tugs ears

slam ‘n plop on my roof top

pummelin’ so I can’t hear

crammin’  jammin’ waterfalls

awash on sands and streets

rainy session in our halls

puddles deep,  no songbird tweets

standin’ tall, all alone

the friendly gull starts to preen

on a rock,  with head a-cock

a water-off-a-gulls-back scene

knows my motor,  lands in time

to get some thing to eat

drenched in rain,  food’s why he came

toss some bread, drive up the street

Right here today
On the Bo Bay

***BO BAY TODAY***

Born into morning views of Bolinas Bay,  for the radio program
“Jonny On The Spot”… ‘I come, I see, I write’… happens early every Wednesday morning.  First broadcast occurred in April 2000… I walk, bike or drive to the end of Wharf Road and feel what’s happening.

In the stillness,  pen it/send it,  from the village of Bolinas, CA… …through the airwaves,

within 90 minutes of authorship!  Oh My!

Bolinas,  found (twelve miles as the crow flies),  is a straight sight to San Francisco’s Ocean Beach….’my hometown‘… as a kid,  looking north through the Straits of the Golden Gate, dreamed ’bout the yellow cliffs of Bolinas Beach.  Now,  for you,  find a Fresh-Look-See…in the morning with me…gaze at the fowl-filled BoStin Channel Menagerie!!!

On The Spot Poetry!
