HAIKU - dock


Black rotting wharf piles `
Bake in the singing white sun `
My line tugs - then stops `

OSI: sunny days


Fishing is timeless oblivion.

  1. What a wonderful snapshot moment you caught...I felt as if I was there! Oh, how I miss the singing white sun on this January day.

  2. Very nice photo and imagery from your poem. I remember younger days, fishing with my sons.

  3. I remember days like that as a child. When the line stopped, it usually meant I caught a rock. When I remember the moment and the line stops, so does time, and then I can dwell in the moment a while.
