Hey there!Hope you are all having a fine day and a splendid weekend!I have another poem for you, one with some humor. Hope you enjoy, here it is:
___FISHING ON THE BRIDGEYou should have seen the Ten-pounder we hookedDown at the bridgeMy boy’s eyes all shinyAnd the smile I can never forget
Neither of us knew what to doSo we played it alongSo long as it doesn’t dartleIt will be goodWe kept playing it alongLet Mr. Fish decide what he wants to do
We can go down off the bridgeOnto the rocks, my boy saidYou think we can make it and still have it?Let’s try, I agreed
But then Mr. Fish showed his impatienceAnd did what a Ten-pounder could doHe broke the line in twoYou swallowed my only hookNow what’ll I do?
My boy’s disbeliefTurned quickly to silent approvalI don’t mind, he saidWe’d have thrown him back in anywaysBut we know we had had himAnd we know we knowAnd he smiled___
Thanks for reading and caring.
Do be safe and much love.
~Roland
