Fly Fishing by JLR
Rondel Poetry writing prompt entry

Casting my line into the current's clutch
My soul relishes the tranquil breeze of the morn.
The crescendo of nearby falls cross boulders worn;
doesn't cause my fly to quake too much.

Fishing line over the eddies flow in my gentle touch
as I watch closely along the bank for a new hatch born.
Casting my line into the current's clutch
My soul relishes the tranquil breeze of the morn.

I will never tire of the relentless pursuit of fishing much
As I gaze over yonder at a fawn chewing buckthorn;
out of the shadows, I see the buck watching over his newborn
while the tug on my line, I swoon over, has my attentive soft touch.
Casting my line into the current's clutch.
