The Bobber Sank

A small decal
in the rear window
the van passing us
on the right

An image,
a stencil
stylized of a fisherman
casting his line

In an instant a memory
more than forty years ago
of a pond I once knew
there a bobber sank suddenly
a fish against the line

The tangle of line
of my hastily filled reel
made the effort more difficult
but the joy of landing the big one
even more exciting
