Wow, that seems to read like the perfect haiku. Wonder how hungry the bear is?

Connie, good haiku, you tied the woods life with the Black Bear with a camp site of fisherpeople and gave the reader the hungry smell of frying fish and the bear too hungry has a mouth watering feeling that he wants to go into the campsite for the frying fish. I can see the camp fire, the moon and the fish caught fresh. Makes me want to spend a vacation in your haiku. Robert Henry Poulin. Nice Stuff. Take the lemon out, you made me hungry for a fish fry.
