No Fish Today Poem by douglas lewis

No Fish Today

Rating: 5.0


Seagulls like white confetti
Spilling from the sky.
Their wings in flap
Like flags aflutter
In the rigging high.
Both squawks and caws
And tangled nettings
Are trawling with a sigh.

COMMENTS OF THE POEM
Seamus O Brian 17 July 2017

I love the landscape of the ocean, and the imagery of seagulls is often in my mind. (Sunset, Somewhere; Changing of the Guard; and Rush Hour are three of my own pieces with those themes) . But in this work you have assembled a number of striking and memorable metaphors that beautifully capture the scene. A highly enjoyable read, Mr. Lewis. I am thankful for the opportunity to enjoy your well-crafted poetry.
