A Line of Thread – v5

A single clear line of thread

strung by a fisherman

between flower and shrub

A road for her, a highway,

A line cast for errant prey

caught in the sunlight

this Sunday morning

After the dew had gone to gas

out of the shadows in the courtyard

A line thrown to catch

her breakfast

if they came her way
