A FREE THINKING DRY FLY
I am tethered to a fly rod by gossamer thread
How I wish to be free to fly to frolic unhindered
To caper where I will without compulsion or goad
Where I may settle if I wish upon the gin clear water
There to linger while fate or whim decide how long I stay
If a wily trout were to spy me floating would he sip or sup
Or would he with a head shake of disdain pass me up
