eternity knows
only
shadow and light
The Timelessness of Koi
Fishbone
fish skeleton
swimming
the ocean sky
Pursuit
stalking fish
warrior feathers
on ruffled heron
Winter Dreams
in the comfort of cattails
keeping watch
frogs and fish fast asleep
Rising
The sun’s warming rays
reach the depths of the pond
summoning fish to the surface.
Beneath
A thin blanket of snow covers the pond
concealing the secret lives of fish.
Stealing Secrets
Fish eavesdrop
on the men
in their ice houses.
Log Bridge
A fallen tree
makes the perfect spot
to sit and spy on fish.
Whispers
If you listen closely
at the edge of the pond, shortly after dawn,
you can hear the fish whisper their plans for the day.
