The Lake

Do you remember
The shine of the water...
How the fish
Jumped from
Water to land?
Do you remember
How it kicked
Out of rolling waves?
How the shine of
His scales reflected
On the lake ripples?
How we casted
One million feet?
Do you remember
How we yanked
And tugged on
The line?
Do you remember
Your shout of excitement
"I've got one"
Almost like
Christmas morning?
Do you remember
That magical time
We went finishing?

The image "the shine of his scales reflected on the lake ripples" helped me realize how awesome fishing can be.
