The Fish Dance
I watched your fish dance
From under my hat brim
Cloud covered and dim
While on your boat
You would float
Waiting for the chance
Of a bending pole
When one flickered
I giggled and snickered
Watching you jump for joy
Like a young boy
At peace was your soul
And all at once I understood
Your remembrance of boyhood
The echoes of the wake
The magic between you
The fish and the lake
