You are a painter and a painter of words...
Life is made of just such seemingly unremarkable events...
Yet as we ponder the wonder and power of the ocean, the fisherman's determination to feed his family, the very real fatigue of a good day, well lived, we begin to realize there is heroism in greeting each new dawn!

Comment from forestport12
For a moment I imagined it was Hemingway fishing and his authorship of poem. Love the gritty homespun word play. Many memorable lines. And I really love the image of him on the floor going into a snore. I visualize that, and reminded me of my wife's grandfather who would come in from work for lunch hour, lay down on the floor for nap and snore!

Wow. Thank forestport for all of these wonderful stars and for your lovely review and stories about your grandfather.
Comment from Dawn Munro
With this excellent poem, you managed to capture what I imagine would be the very essence of a fisherman's day -- in fact a typical one -- and it's touching ending is simply sublime.

I enjoyed this masterfully crafted piece on a day in the life of a fisherman. I fish as often as I can. It relieves my stress, and the peacefulness that it brings is magical.
God bless,
Steve

Your poem created in me a tranquil harmony and memories of fishing when I was younger and fitter.
I also love your painting, you truly are a talented creator in so many arts

Comment from Samantha Wymer
I have been too the beach many times to see sailers coming and going from sunrise to sunset. It's a beautiful sight to see and peaceful for the mind. At night is the best to find crabs. You're remarkable and vivid poem makes me think of sitting out on the beach in a remote island. I could live my life that way.

What a well written and picturesque poem. Your storytelling ability and poetic flow are amazing. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this. It truly put me in the boat, on the dock, at the table, by the fire and on the floor.
Excellent job!!

Nicely done poem capturing the spirit of being a professional fisher person. I have gone deep sea fishing a couple of times caught salmon, skipper jack tuna and eel

Comment from Janet Foor
Love your artwork Pam. A perfect picture for your well written poem. Beautiful imagery, rhymes and alliteration throughout. My family used to fish when the kids were young - a great experience and it does tire one out.
Happy I have a six left this week.
Blessings
