Patiently waiting

Fresh air
Sun shinning bright
Green eyes with a gentle stare
Across my face a confident smile

Looking deep to find the right bait
A perfect hook for this catch
Tie the knot strong
making sure this battle I win

Line cast
flowing gracefully
in mid air
taking it's place

Waiting patiently
for the right bite

I feel the surge
the struggle is on
this is the one
I've been waiting for

Giving line to let you play
eventually you will tire

Look at you
your a beauty
freely playing
in your own habitat

But, mine you will be
all in time

I reel you in
slowly but surely

Your weight is heavy
not more
than I can bear

Your closer now
more beautiful
than I ever imagined

I slowly reach
expecting you
to fight free

Amazed your motionless
here in my hands

Not sure of your surroundings
you seem comfortable
here with me

The texture of your skin
is helpless to my touch

How shall I prepare you
is my thought

Fry you
in fire so hot
quick and easy

No that is not the way it should be

I shall prepare you
with all the right spices
the oil and juices
compatible mixture
slow and gentle
that is the way it should be

Baste you, bake you
and broil you to the end

Steam flowing from you
aroma fills the air
counting the moments
till your flavor I taste

Your the perfect catch!
