secluded cove shore
passing speed boat makes large wakes
flapping black ducks now
lift off, fly low and scatter
to cattail grove of refuge...

Aesthetics
I hate the frail cattail
beside the lake--it grows too tall.
yet the sparrow
loves it--he doesn't fall
from that which gracefully
supports his weight.

What's there to hate?...
