The Night Charlie Tended The Weir

by joey on Jul.15, 2008, under Fly Fishing

This is a poem by Gordon Bok that I read in college and thought of it when my mother sent me this picture of her Uncle Bob. I like to think that Charlie might look like this. Listen to this good ole’ Down East Poem.

    Oops- actually this poem was written by the late Maine author Ruth Moore. If you like the poem you should read her novel: The Weir.
