Beating the Sunrise

Beating the Sunrise
Form: Sonnetina Uno
Theme: Introspective
Subject: Bait box

To rise early and head out to the lake
A fisherman’s plan of action is set
With rods and tackle sat beside the door
His alarm set to beat the rising sun
And in first rays of light he finds his spot
While sitting watching swims gathering in
From ground bait to casting out the first line
The stress of living fades away with ease
As silence waits for the all-telling tug
Fish play catch-me-if-you-can with a bite

I am a freelance writer and poet and started writing after raising my two boys as a way of discovering just who Jez is. That is still very much an ongoing project but the journey so far has introduced me to many wonderful friends and fellow writers through an ever-growing love of poetry.
