Blacksmith Fork and Fox

Blacksmith Fork
I find fish for you,
like a dowser, and the line and your
hand feel the fish choose the fly.
Browns, Rainbows and the Cutthroat.
The last fish like you,
native, beautiful . . . . rare.
You hold them in your palm and free
the hook,
watch them shimmer red back into the water.
Fox
I think I saw you when the sun went down,
dancing through the sagebrush and mesquite.
You held your arms out, but not to me,
and I watched you spin in the moonlight with the
stars.

Hansen is a poet and dreamer newly wed and
