(Additional words and smiles by Delsyia Hendricks)

I can see why you're wishin'
you'd taken up fishin'
now that the suns in the sky,
there's nothing much better
in glorious weather
than messing around with a fly.

Don't go in Winter
when frozen trees glinter
your feet will go numb in the snow,
but now that it's sunny
there's nothing more yummy
than chasing a fish to and fro.

You'll find it relaxin'
not overly taxin'
with luck you might catch a big fish,
most British fishes
make wonderful dishes
what more for could any man wish.

Bravo! a fishing poem--love it.
Strange though, I do most of my fishing on frozen water, but never really get cold. What I do for a living gives me very little time to fish soft water, although I dream about it always..when I cross a bridge and see the mayflies rising.

Good poem, I enjoyed it.

Come read to me some poem,
Some simple and heartfelt lay,
That shall soothe this restless feeling
And banish the thoughts of day.
Longfellow
