Plumbing the transparent mysteries and swinging through the whorls of light and water and shadow, trout shadows appear and disappear revealing truths to the fly fisher's lie. One voice in the chorus that is singing in the eddies, coursing through the rock gardens of a thousand tumbled torrents ... of words over throwing these banks. These are only the occasional visitations of my home waters.

Transparent Mysteries
Pleading our lives
like the woven intricacies
of two streams mixing
through rock and sand and wood
we reach out
ruminating on the iridescence of trout
can’t help but wonder at the mystery
as color’s shifting splash
and subtle shift in wave frequency
change in angles of light
nerve impulse stimulation
electro-chemical twinge light reception
measured in foot candles
in lumens all in
discrete packets, zillons of them
the photon, quantum of the electromagnetic field,
how then does it translate
to beauty?
Merry Christmas and a Joyous New Year
Hyvaa joulua Onnellista uutta vuotta
Keep a tight line,
Steve Therrien
