fish
and the women sit
in the shade
beneath the great oaks
beside
the lake.
the children play.
the men
telling them to be quiet,
you're going
to scare the fish
away.
the hot afternoon
folds into
night.
just a few fish are
caught,
and saved, the others,
too small
for eating, are
thrown
back
for another day.
