When the Fishermen are Gone
by Richard L. Provencher

A wooden hull
bumps gently
against the dock

Slap of water
along the
shore

Skim of glass upon
the lake

Distant hills outline the sky.

And in the cottage
mom and dad
are resting

Children no longer here

Now grown into
careers and faraway places

They remember the boat.

Richard L. Provencher

Richard enjoys writing poems; many of which have been published in Print and Online. He and his wife, Esther are also co-authors of stories and a print novel. They are "born again" Christians and very busy in their church, Abundant Life Victory International, in Bible Hill, Nova Scotia.
