What Hemingway Saw And Felt That Summer

floor, rat eaten shoe
fisherman and lake in tune
dawn, eggs and bacon

I see contrasting images of life here, Robert. The first line is acknowledging its harsh reality; the next line reflects peaceful serenity; the third declares 'live for the moment' and 'make the best of it'! Regards, my friend. // paul

Spot on analysis my very insightful friend . To me that reflects much wisdom about life on your part. Recently I have written about two dozen Haiku's and have begun to like the poetry form more with each one I have written.

I can really see this. Great imagery in so few words.

Thank you my friend. I was in a early morn thought about life, Nature and Fate. Hemingway, one of my favorite authors, came to mind and out came this poem.

Whoa! I would not have wanted to share that sight of a rat eaten shoe. Thanks for dropping by. Sara

Thank you my friend. Rat eaten shoes are just another part of the never ending destruction of things. Fate and Time decides what lasts and for how long..
