Fisherman's Blues

I wish I was a fisherman
tumbling on t he sea
far away from dry land
and its bitter memories
casing out my sweet line
with abandonment and love
no ceiling bearing down on me
save the starry sky about
with Light in my head
and you in my arms

Mike Scott and the Waterboys

I like the play on words in the title! The blurred effect of the reflection is good too. Overall a great shot! V
