Silent Dock
Waves crash against the rocks
Whittleing away the stone
Removing the old beaten docks
Leaving one all a lone
The remaining dock has but few boats
Each one looking newer then the last
All hidden like a note
All acting like a cast
These boats begin to float away
Leaving but few at the dock
Few boats will ever stay
Others will leave at the ding of a clock
Leaving the lonely dock
To find itself a lone once more
Through time the dock becomes like rock
Showing the boats who are flimsy the door
The waves of time bring more boats
Most simply leave for fame
Others cover the dock like coats
Becoming one in the same
Boats on a dock much like friends in school
Either use you like a home, or a tool
