tree story #63: Cast and Reel and Cast Again
I love the natural light
hitting the rolls of
the carelessly placed lake
as I cast and reel
and cast again.
And I’m sitting beneath
the netted branches of a tree
as it casts its immense limbs
out against me, reeling
me in closer and I move
ecstatic like a flopping fish
hooked by the natural light.
