little fish slipped between my fingers
their eyes marbles under water
and their fins knives of paper
sunbeams danced upon my wrists
and set joyful bonfires
all along the skin
coral antlers pricked my feet
their ridges like tiny backs
nipping at the unprotected flesh
There is no minimum size to these moments
It is hunting season
and I am catching dreams

Jack – Your way with words is enchanting and shows how joyful you are about this incredible experience in your life. I love “It’s hunting season and I am catching my dreams”. What a beautiful way to put it.

Kaboom! “It is hunting season and I am catching dreams.” That’s a line for the ages. Pretty work, Jack.
