Fond Memories

Fond Memories

A Poem by Deborah Leah Krempa

 

I actually enjoyed myself

 

Somewhat today

 

Went fishing with my daughter

 

It was a beautiful spring day

 

Fond memories we made

 

As the catfish jumped and played

 

The sun was shining with a few dancing clouds

 

The air was fresh and crisp

 

No rain until tomorrow

 

No pain

 

No sorrow

 

Funny thing about the weather

 

It's so much like life itself

 

No one can predict how it will turn out

 

Like today for instance

 

I wasn't feeling quite well

 

Just wanted to stay home and sulk

 

Sleep my troubles away

 

But for once

 

I let go of my worries

 

Decided to go fishing instead

 

Even though

 

The weather forecast for tomorrow

 

Called for rain and snow flurries

 

All in all

 

It was a lovely day

 

As fond memories we made

Fishing is great therapy--I hope to do a little of it soon myself.

The value of fishing. My father is still an avid fisher. I never realized the value of fishing until a friend insisted we go fishing. The water lapping at the rocks along the jetty, the sun, the light winds, and a floating cork. :)

I'm glad you ahd a good visit.

Cheers!
Doc.

There ya go. It is heartening and refreshing to read something of yours not mournful.

I can certainly relate. Many a time, just having activities planned with a friend or lover is just what the doctor ordered to counter the weight of sorrow.

Good change of pace.

Sounds like a wonderful day. Now, when's the fish fry? Should I bring the ham? :)

never know what can happen when we decide to step outside. It's always a pleasant suprise when such a great day happens upon us. Glad you decided to step outside and leave your worries inside. Gotta try for the good moments every once in a while. Makes the rain a little easier to endure. Lovely write.

the best joy in life is to melt with nature around you..if you love it so much
it will love you back and you will see how content you be..
and how a great joy you feel,never enclose on yourself
and say i will sink my pains in ,no they will make you sink with them
in a very dark pit,so always open yourself to life,and feel the
small joys that it gives you..
lovely write..
