Time and the River
“At the edge of the meadow
flowed the river.
Nick was glad
to get to the river.
He walked upstream
through the meadow.”

“In the swamp the banks were bare, the big cedars came together overhead, the sun did not come through, except in patches; in the fast deep water, in the half light, the fishing would be tragic. In the swamp fishing was a tragic adventure. Nick did not want it. He did not want to go down the stream any further today.”
