A Special Afternoon

Noticed him fishing
Was during my break
Took the scenic walk
Down by the  lake

Glancing eye to eye
We made connection
With sparkling views
From lake reflection

I had been reading
So closed my book
He gave me a grin
While baiting a hook

Having sat nearby
In watching him cast
Hey care to join me
He had said at last

In patting the grass
The fun had started
Enjoying outdoors
Banter lighthearted

A special afternoon
The fish were biting
We also discovered
Our love of writing

The body language
Expressions agree
Connections made
The angler and me

*giggling* sounds like the perfect way to spend the afternoon. Also sounds like you caught a live one.  

Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams.

Hope-
   I'm liking this a LOT.
   Really enjoyed reading it, and I could
   just see the two sitting there...made me smile.
   Nicely done.
   Hugs,
