Fishing Humor

[Oabrook Abram]

THE FISHERMAN

ONCE I WAS A FISHERMAN
THOUGH NOT A THING I CAUGHT I THINK
UNLESS OF COURSE YOU MIGHT COUNT
THE LENGTH OF FORTY WINKS

I SAILED UPON THE OPEN SEA
AND GAZED AT WONDROUS FLEETS
BUT ALAIS THIS TAIL HAS COME TO SHORE
AS THE TIDE DID SOAK MY SEAT

THE DAMPNESS DRIPPED DOWN FROM MY DREAMS
TO THE SLACK LIMP ARK OF LINE
NOW YOU KNOW HOW FISHING BECAME
MY GREATEST CATCH OF TIME
