Tugboat Annie's

A Poem by Marie Harrison
"

A tropical poem

"

-    - Tugboat Annie’s - - 

Boats line the rickety piers

All around her cove by the mangroves

With twinkly white lights strung

Above with love

 

Rasta’s reggae fills the air

With care as her steel drums

Pulsing off-beat casts a

Powerful hex on her decks

 

Sweet rum runners

Flow freely

Knocking her thirsty

Patrons’ toes-up

With one dixie cup

 

You and me

Rocking to the beat

Under her full moon

In our bare feet

She would probably continue to pull on something bigger than herself. She can.

Tugboat Annie`s is for real.
How do I know this, because you made
it come to life in your poem.
Arousing beat, aroma of rum and sweaty
girls culminates in an exciting excursion to
the land of sensuous alive, loving nights.
Great writing, fantastic imagery , love it .
