A Fishing Story

There was a freak storm
Last night
We buried our feet in the sand
Huddled together
In our old woollen shawl 
Careful not to let 
The sea cut and graze our skin
Salt hurts
Like a burn 
We gasp
It is hard to hold our breath
To let the moment pass
Everything plays out 
Like an old painting 
If we can catch it
In our words
Maybe it would become a legend 
We push into each others flesh
Quietly playing out
This fishing story.
