Here's a custom made sign that once hung over my main street bookstore in Western Colorado. I closed that brick and mortar outlet years ago, but I kept the books, and the sign. Somehow I just could not bear to part with either.
You might say that the sign was a bit of a self portrait. And as you can see, I may have had some other things on my mind.
I love the books, I surely do, particularly of the hunting and fishing kind. But as we know, a man, or a woman, must have the priorities.
No doubt, you might have a guess as to what they might be...
Gone Fishin'...and have a wee green beer for me on this Saint Patty's Day!

"Trout are like dreams hovering in the elusive unconscious. In capturing one, if ever so briefly, before release, there is that sense of revelation occuring when one awakes in the night, snatching a dream from the portals of sleep." - Kitty Pearson-Vincent
Great post, my friend! Happy Saint Patty's day! Enjoy. I definitely want to check out some of your books.
Thanks, you too. Books I got, beer I don't - cause I have to work today...Hope you don't - have to work today that is...
Thanks, I didn't have to work yesterday but I was busy with other stuff so I didn't have a chance to respond to your comment.
You must be my long lost brother! fishing pole in one hand, book in the other. Accurately describes me. Too bad your store is closed, I'd come visit for sure. Ha! I was going to link to my poem, "A Boys Dream of Fish" but you already read it. I have to let you know I'm suffering over here in Carson City, NV. Fishing is pretty poor.
Ah yes, brothers of the book, and the outside...Loved your poem, and I hope a fish is soon to be in your future...
