A poetic vignette from J. M. Lewis in the Houston Post. The narrator imagines a tranquil fishing day, describing mist on trees, a bee's morning load, larks at dawn, and settling by a sycamore with a bobber and hat. He vows to enjoy the river, birds, sunlit ripples, and a simple supper after a day of fishing.
