A Real Fish Story

hook
In a boat way off in some shady
nook,
When the only sounds that are
waited to you
Are those of the gentle wild
doves COO,
When all Dame Nature seems
to smile
A welcome for you to spend a
while
In woodland on lake or river
where
You can leave behind all work
and care?
With bait so adjusted you feel
sure that
1t appeals to the pickerel, the
bass or cat,
You are after the game ones
and do not care
For the smaller fry that are
residents there,
Your attention divided in
watching the bob
And taking draw from your
favorite cob,
What sport can furnish such
keen delight
As a fisherman feels when he
gets a bite?
Then all Of a sudden the cork
disappears
And hope springs anew but
mingled with fears,
For the line might break, the
prize be lost;
You intend to land him at any
cost.
With a steady pull and all your
strength
You bringup fish three inches
in length,
A wee little perch with wide
open eyes
That seem to say 81 apologize"
