He sits on a shore With a line or two In the water At this time in his life Whether or not There is bait on the hook Is of no concern If never the less Something should come And for its own reasons Choose to tremble the bobber Well then yes perhaps It would be nice . . . To have some fish With his wine |

John~ You grabbed a 'moment-of-me' ... somedays I sit the shore, content to let the bobber drift ... reading a good book ... and being delightfully surprised if I get a tug on the line ... but find that it isn't necessary~ Other times ... I attack my fishing trips with gusto~ Enjoyed the scenery~ *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |

Has a very nice oriental feel to it That I find enjoyable Fish and wine When blended makes a meal; Only wine Reduces the feel. Gloom |

Loved this (as usual with your poetry)! Sometimes I feel this way - and some times I wish I did. - Owl |

Man, I wish this was about me but I am not even close to being that way, I wish I was though. Very nice, well done. Cheers - Ed "Give me a museum, and I'll fill it." |

John...I love to fish, just to sit and gaze at water and trees and things, so this poem really made me want to head out with my fishing gear and put a line in, with bait or not! Thanks! |
