Wharf

Tar soaked, sticky wood timbers, chunky black and brown planks along the splashing waters
Bird droppings, sour smelling spray of brine and seagull cackles.
Thunder-rumbles in footsteps
Cable car brass bell chimes in staccato flourishes
Thump-carump of visiting feet, smacking up and down the deep blue visage
Chintzy shops, souvenirs, and tourist trappings
Sea spray, and howling grumble of seals,
flubbering about on nearby docks.
Crisp, clearing buffets in chilly, driven winds that wind their way up coats, grabbing hats to hide and seek along the ground
Chatter, corn dogs, sugar coated dreams
