COONEY LEDGE
by John J King
COONEY LEDGE WAITS
FOR BOATS
WITHOUT CHARTS!
THEN WITHOUT WARNING,
TEARS APART, CARELESS YACHTS.
NO MARKER IN THE DAY,
OR NIGHT.
NO CANS,NUNS,OR FLASHER,
SHINING BRIGHT.
NO DIMONd SHAPED MARKER
TO WARN!
NO SPARS, BELLS OR
WAILING HORN!
BIG ROCKS JUST WAITING
UNDER THE SEA.
FOR SAILORS FISHERMEN,
AND
MAYBE ME.
SHE GIVES UP HER PRIZE,
WHEN THE TIDE IS HIGH!
THEN WAITS PATHINETEY,
FOR HER NEXT VICTIM
TO PASS by.
