small fish - June 25, 2020

Gary Hunter

why go hungry

angling day and night

for that one trophy lurking

in life’s deep blue sea?

let the tasty easier-to-catch

smaller fish relieve your craving

until a big love pulls you under

trust kindness be generous

and use your everyday hooks

friendships will always nourish you
