Australia - The Port Adelaide Roads Poem by Paul Warren

Australia - The Port Adelaide Roads



As you look out from Largs North
From the beach toward the sea forth
You can see the buoys clearly mark
The Port Adelaide roads for ships apart

On a busy day you see the ships sail through
Taking cargo in and out of Outer Harbour true
How many ships have plied their way made
Through the St Vincent Gulf to Port Adelaide

Over the years you can see mighty warships visiting
And the grand bicentennial fleet with canvas sailing
During the summer you now watch cruising liners
Who come to visit for our fine wine and as diners.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
My home again if you look at the map of Australia Adelaide is situated on St Vincent Gulf. It is shallow water and roads are dredged in the sea bed to let ships come into the Port Adelaide area. Just a bit of word geography.
