I watched them from far above with envy
as they sunbathed on the docks leisurely.
Some plonked on the planks with the thuds heavy.
Some lolled without a care in luxury.
Their oily skins glistened in the hot sun
as they arched their backs in a yoga pose.
They flipped mud or sand to lessen the burn-
oozy snores and proud of their moustached nose.
Majestically aloof king seal stood
while his subjects flopped like sacks of gunny.
Something, somehow triggered their playful mood-
with grunts and honks they dived into the sea.
They swam with joyous barks hour after hour-
the pleasures of steam, sauna and shower.
