Ode to A Featherweight

Numero Uno

No blank in this
A Kempy One-Weight
Seven feet six of pure joy
Hand-built by him with love
And bespoke for me
Thank you good friend

Carbon Fibre Fast
Hard as Greenheart
Soft as Lancewood
Lithesome as Cane

Wing hackle of Jay marks you out 
A true-blue-flash of Kingfisher
To be seen along my wild trout streams
My Fisher King
My fleeting, flightful, featherweight
