"Early Rising"
by Kristin Divino

Joy is the jon boat we float before sunrise. The whirring of buzzbaits rings clear on the lake. Lily pads gather large droplets of water and sag as we skim over, peaceful and calm. We hear a pop on the water, see ripples soon follow, excitement grows more each second. A few casts that way, we mimic the prey as bass feed, but out of full view. Geese fly above n the pink and blue sky as they sing us a song of good morning. The first touch of sun on your arms and your cheeks, its gentle, soft warmth engulfs you. |
