Close Encounter




Happily paddling
Kayak was I
Blind to the big fish
Passing me by

Why did I kayak
A shark shield without?
What was I thinking
Thinking about?



A South Australian coastal beach is well-known for kingfish and snapper.
Where there’s big fish there’s often bigger fish

I just like playing round with words. And having fun
