A Winter Poem

Cold hands

The gurgle of water beneath a frozen Three Mile Creek descends into the mighty Fork below

Life

American Dippers bob and weave in search of an easy meal

Winter warm

The Sun does its job, if only during the heart of the afternoon

Water

Frigid temps keep bug activity to a minimum, but even lethargic trout need to eat

Footprints

Raccoons and mule deer pave the way for this hopeful angler 

Winter solitude

The cool air in my lungs is welcomed, not scorned

The sound of the river is all there is
