At Country Harbour, Nova Scotia
A mackerel silver lure, red plastic
surrounding treble hooks
background, an ocean
pounding Atlantic's shore, seagulls
as kites, windy
nudges feathery in flight
fishermen of all ages sitting
on a new concrete wharf
tested
by tidal movement
six hours in, six hours out
staccato of an outboard trolling
for supper, loons
playful in sea spray
people watching, joking
comparing
a collage of activity, fishermen
continue casting, jigging
lines, reeling one in.
