PEACEFUL

On a creek bank casting a line
To catch a catfish, from time to time
Nary a nibble, but that’s trivial,
Just came here to pass some time

Relaxing, sure not taxing,
It calms the mind
Think of nothing, feeling alive
In this World, so divine

A simple pleasure?
Call it a treasure,
And ease the pressure
Of daily life

Sit in the shade on a lazy day
Listen to birds, stare at the sky,
Watching the Eagles fly
On air so high

No better place, can a man be
To find peace and serenity,
Than on a creek bank casting a line,
To catch a Catfish, from time to time
