In his want of destination a day seemed an eternity and an afternoon a half eternity, except at Kroeker’s pond- where a bullhead would sit on muddy bottom until a shout of glee, then eternity would shatter as years later would his want. |

then eternity would shatter as years later would his want. ~*~ It's too early. First read, I thought "what?" Second read...[still no coffee, but oh well] I said, Oh, yes... Tagged around my dad when knee high to his boots and was complaining about h o w l o n g that particular summer day seemed, and how I wished to we had this, and that, and could go here, and there. His words? Don't wish your life away. Too true. Thanks for the sounds of the pond, Sir, especially on this chilly day. |
