port
The port is the place where I sit and look out onto the harbor. The dark blue sea taunts me, rich with beauty and mystique. The secrets it holds are ones I cannot fathom. I will never be as wise, I let the sea breeze tickle my face. I smile.
“A safe port in a storm” the sign promises. But by the looks of the place, it’s not any safer than staying out here on the street. The paint is cracked, peeling; the door looks like it’s bee almost kicked in… I think it’s better to find any other “safe” harbor.
When I hear the word port, I think of sailors, and the ocean and ships. I imagine a sunset over the water. I can picture a vast, endless horizon that stretches as far as the eye can see. I’ve never been to sea. I think the vastness of it would frighten me.
“I can’t believe you’re leaving … for a whole six months,” Louise sighed as they stood at the port for the ship going to Europe. “Hey,” john smiled, “chin up. I’ll be back before you know it.” And he kissed her. The most passionate kiss she had ever felt.
My favorite place to go is the beach. Ive been in love with it since I was a little girl. I’ve recently experienced boating. The sight if all the boats leaving and entering and sleeping in the port is breathtaking to me.
I dropped him off at the port by the ferry and hoped to god that I would see him again. Keeping in contact was easy these days wasn’t it? This couldn’t just be a summer fling. Something had happened this summer, and I didn’t know how exactly to describe it, but I knew it was amazing.
you left me there
unable to breath
drawn inward
in the sheer pain of the moment
tears streaming down my face
how could you
you left me in this moment
stuck at the airport
with only my luggage in hand
and no one was there
no
you left me there
Right, it’s time to visit the children. Pass the port. You don’t expect I’ll do it sober, do you Franklin. Ugly bunch of tossers, can’t believe they’re mine. Still, mustn’t grumble. At least it’s dark in the cells.
As I was arriving into the city I could see the port looming in the distance. You could heard all the sails clanking against the other random wooden things on ships and see all the fisherman preparing for the market early in the morning. Though it was midnight the harbor was bustling with people.
port. like a portal? i have a portal. it leads to austitties lair. it’s always steamy in there. i like to think it’s because i’m so sexy. i doubt that though. no one with three nipples could be sexy. i’m always alone.
Like in those little towns by the sea. The ships come into port to deliver cargo or passengers or whatever else it is they are carrying. I love being by the sea. I love smelling it’s salty aroma and being surrounded by enormous amounts of sea food :) i feel at home by the sea :)
The port today was incredibly full with different types of ships. The ones that caught my eye most were the ships that were filled with eyepatches and swords. They intrigued me enough that I wanted to join in on the fun.
The port has sailed. Swept by hurricane winds, lifting it clear off the shore. Ships caught in it’s wake clink and crumple against the crashing waves, like tin cans on the back of a newly wed car bound for a beginning.
the port on the bay was just miles away from he. She reached for the air as she thought of the adventure that will await her. He was there but would he want her too? Would he want her as much as she wanted him? Only time will tell.
Portland. I went there on a school trip this past year, and had I not gone, I wouldn’t have met the guy that later became my first quasi-boyfriend. I remember landing in the airport and noticing that it said “Welcome to Portland” on a baggage cart. For some reason that struck me as odd. It felt like I was getting in touch with history in some weird way–I hadn’t really thought ports continued to exist out of colonial necessity. Is that odd?
the port opened to a sea of goods coming from miles away. Unfortunately, most people smuggled illegal items across the vast ocean. They found ways to create income from what others labeled as filth, taint, and poison.
I came into port on a Tuesday, waiting for someone to meet and greet me. Instead of a bouquet I was met face to face with the alleys and streets slicken with rain. All this while I was seeing your face, hearing your name, feeling your touch in my sleep. Insomnia led me here to your home, to our past, to the roots of where we grew from. We’re like the leaves that shed from trees, some ready and some overdue.
The airport was full of people bustling about, trying to find their correct way. Some don’t know where they are going, some don’t know who they are trying to find, and some are experts. The experts are the ones that I liked to look at the most. They seemed so calm, so cool, so collected at the airport. It’s such a curious place to feel at ease, is it not?
There was a sickening feeling curled in the bottom of my stomach. We had arrived at port and the wind had picked up, blowing salty sea air across my cheeks and stinging my eyes. This was it…
Port is the left side of a sail boat. I love sailing boats. It brings back good memories of this summer. Teaching little children the parts of the boats is a very fun thing to do. I love sailing.
Could be a wine. Could be a boat. Lets go with boat.Actually, I would love a new word. Why would they pick one so boring? Couldn’t it be a little more interesting
ports are everywhere around the oceans. oceans separate us from other beings. those other beings could potentially be our husbands or wives. birth our children. live in our homes. without ports you wouldn’t be here.
Oh the port. That’s what we called our portal. It was shorter, by only two letters, but that’s what we called it. It was our friend. Since we were young. We’d use the port to get in and out. This would be without our parents knowing of course. We were feisty little children. But, they eventually found out one day and the port was closed when it was our bed time.
to enter his house we needed to go threw the portal. The door wasnt like any other, it was inside a tree. hidden. disguised. secret words, phrases anything she could think of didn’t work.
I looked to the port side of the ship, and I saw the back of a whale as it went back down into the water. I called Dennis over.
“I can’t believe I just saw one! I love being out at sea!”
Oh the port. Or the portal, which would be a better known term to you. The port was our friend. It helped us sneak out when we were kids. Past our bed time, of course. It was more than a device to go run outside late at night. It helps us travel to this day. But when we were kids, we had a blast. That was until it was locked up when our bed time hit. They caught us.
The port was full of ships. Some waiting to dock others waiting to leave. People milled around the port’s docks for similar reasons. It was a place of both building excitement and terrible heartache.
ships come in and out and it is a great red wine, the port of call of the sailors lead them into town to find out what kind of mischief they can get into. the port of the sea side is a great place to visit.
There was immense opening in the ocean. It was hard to see at first but once I sailed closer I could tell it was a man-made port. I didn’t know where it led but it didn’t matter. I wanted to leave this place. It looked like it was thousands of years old. It could have led anywhere.
I gazed out into the sunrise, thinking of how badly I fucked up. I had the perfect chance to kiss her, right there. Not perversely, but in such a way that maybe he would fall in love with me too. I sighed and threw a starfish into the ocean, and started walking back to port.
i feel like i have no port. like i’m kinda lost at sea. maybe like a little boat. like a tug boat. maybe because i’m thirty and still see myself as a lost little kid. talk about arrested development, right? but yeah. i’m like a little tug boat. with no port to doc at.

The sea extending out to the horizon. Waiting to board the massive vessel. Standing on the dock of the most beautiful port ever.

A place where ships sell there goods. Fisherman flinging their catches. Long ropes knotted and tied. Sails and masts expertley stored.

A safe harbour for people of the sea. Splintery wood and sharp rusty nails. An escape from rough weather at sea.
