Go Fish

Go Fish

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Go fish, young man, go fish.

What a smelly tale that makes.

Of course, it all depends on which scale

You use to weigh it.

A gill will get you two

All in a breath or more.

Throw a line and look hard,

You’ll find it in the fin,

Though a wake in the water

Trails along behind.

Worm or no worm,

Bait is what it’s all about.

You tie your fly and I’ll tie mine,

I always say.

Hooked you good, didn’t I?

But then I was looking for a keeper.
