Missing the Fisherman

The ache is stubborn,
need to smell the salt
and feel the heat again.
She could jump

into the car and drive
and drive and drive
and not look back

until she finds him on the beach.
Too much to answer for,
she throws herself into
the task at hand and wonders
if the fish are biting.
