Liverpool Docks - Book of Time
Old Liver Clock
Mersey Street
Liverpool Docks, Men Of The Docks
In yesterdays book of time
the feet of the dead
wore an even tread
as the men of the docks
solid as the rock
marched to the ticking
of the old Liver clock.
In a Mersey street
of yorkstone flag
the prints of feet
marked and pitted in a line
Patterns softened now by time.
No sign of hobnail boots
just a boat on show
decked in bunting cotton.
Memory of the dockers
unforgotten.
Old Mersey Street
Boat
- Seas of freedom
A Poem inspired by the murderous action of israelis boarding a peace boat taking much needed aid to Palestine.
