THE FISH

do the fish
know 
of our existence...

 
do they wonder
if heaven
is there up above...

the skyline of waves
that contains
them...

do they circulate stories
of alien
​craft...

and ponder 
the mysteries
of life...

might they view us as
angels

full of god's love...

or monsters and devil's
not
friends...

do they forgive us our sins
as we hook them
with bait...

​​​do they
​​​​​understand
​​​​​​then...

their most 
deadly
mistake...

that no heaven
exits 
for a fish...

only hell.

My Dear Marion,

What a beautiful heartfelt poem.   Adding a little levity to it, if you are "Fishing" for compliments, you have mine.
When I was a lad at summer camp, I used to catch fish, and if they were one foot long, could take them to the mess hall, and the chef would cook them for me.  But now, over six decades later, I could never catch a fish, without throwing it back in the water, to live another day.

All my love,
Larry xxx
