A Journal of Thoughts from Last Week

The O in the One that Got Away

As deep as moss
that holds footprints
there beside the creek

beyond the glint of sun
was the trout that Dad
was never able to catch

    Perhaps it was for the good — look at what happened to Captain Ahab! Sometimes it is the quest that is truly important. Once caught, the fishing for it would have been tarnished perhaps? https://rolandyeomans.blogspot.com/2024/08/for-days-are-evil-chapter-nine-girl.html

      Dad always returned “special” fish to the exact spot where he caught them. I’m on my way to yours, Roland.
