Fishing
from the Blue Canoe
Jackson
Davis

|
We will pause and put
Our paddles across our knees,
And wait for the river
To drift us to that island.
There, we think, we
Will step out, and stretch,
And watch the river pass.
I will fish while you cut apples.
And then someone will speak:
I know the persimmon
Can be sweet, when eaten after
The first hard frost.
I know there is no
Newness in tears, that all tears
Taste the same.
Each one is riddled with salt.

About
the Author
Born then,
not dead yet.
Fairly well-read; on occasion somewhat agreeable to talk
with.
Thinks good country folk are, in fact, God's Chosen
People, and thanks his God for Jane.
"No other marks or brands recollected," as Lincoln
repeated.
