Thoughts turn to fishing.

Cast flies landing on water

Let the green shoots show

All the things that green shoots know

Shoots know spring, and grow

 

(around my big toe. but not in the snow. and not all the time, but why do I rhyme? I feel funny and fine, just forget this last line. :lol: )

Shoots know spring, and grow,

Taller, bigger, under care,

Nurture weeds and blooms!

 

(It's only dangerous to rhyme, if it happens all the time, If it makes you feel good, continue you should, but if it worries you so, to a doctors (or similar), you should go! :P)
