Fish Tale

In oceans and lakes
And festering sewers,
Fishing's a sport
With many allures.

Though obviously not
Working out at the gym
The fish are all strong.
Their belief: "sinker swim."

It was the kid's first trip
He was totally new.
When the first fish bit,
He was hooked (the fish, too).

A couple more fish
Were caught on a spinner
But three trout was not quite
Enough for a dinner.

We stayed out till dusk
Dropping lines out for more
And finally came in with
Net profit of four.

  1. Yesterday morning our neighbor


    Hoisted his rod


    And reeled in a fat one


    Now we're all eating cod

  2. I'm happy your neighbor
    had luck with his pole
    Now the fun part:
    Eating the whole


    thing.
