The Fish House

sea
salt air
reminds me
screen door slamming
smells
smiles
I shared
with my Dad
fish cleaning chores
peace

A lovely childhood memory here Jim! Isn't it funny how you can still smell and taste the flavors of the past. Good luck in the contest friend.

Hi James, I will finally be flying to the beach in a few weeks. Haven't been in years. You brought back many beautiful memories I have of that place. Especially the cleaning of the fish with my dad on the pier. Thanks ever so much!-AA
