Catch and Release
Water cascaded off of the paddle onto cobalt plastic. Each plunge into the river caused sporadic splashes in a futile struggle to match the pace of my mom’s rapidly vanishing kayak. Mottled gray and white clouds billowed across the sky, but only a light breeze whispered across the water’s surface. Tree branches shook amicably. Their bright leaves in a full June flush brushed the top of my baseball cap. Murky shading of the river below was ideal for pickerel to inconspicuously weave their way amidst the shifting weeds.

The Winter Has Been ColdRunner-Up in Return of the Night Owl Challenge
Gasping for air and slipping on uncertain footing, I fervently chipped away at the inches of snow and ice that coated my Rav4. Forest green under white sheets, it mimicked the firs and pines shrouding our quiet college campus. I had forgotten my mittens again. Blushed fingers stiffly grappled against the old brush with each stab and huff of frustration. It was a long semester. Nor'easters piled snow as fast as professors buried us in assignments.
