a mid morning breeze

leaves in a carefree tumble

flutter, dip, and swoon

with lilt of a butterfly,

grace bestowed, free to the end

Off The Pier

Yeap! Honest to goodness alternate way of fishing witnessed off the pier in my neighborhood this Sunday evening.

The only other place I have ever seen this type of fishing was in the Mediterranean!!

Hope your Sunday was as delightful as mine:)

 

off the pier

under the setting sun

cultures merge

below the surface
hidden in these reflections,
lives of compromise
where ocean water meets fresh –
overcoming, adapting
