Cooking Lake
by Richard L. Provencher

serves up a potpourri of ducks in
colourful bunches.
Their resting place temporary
as evening clouds shelter
an Alberta sky.
Where hunters prey along
the shore.
Imitation calls trying to
seduce careless members
within the flock.
.12 gage steel pellets anxious
for a hit.
But these mallards are not easily
tempted from the shallows.
Nibbling roots more interesting
this very moment.

2011 Richard L. Provencher
