Dense fog she lifts slowly down Moose 'arbor way , cast off from 'er moorings me ship leaves the bay . A chorus o' gulls cries a raucous fare-well . Me 'opes rise on wings o' their own fer a spell , works swift , as a storm blowin' in from the sea . T'day be the one lads they're callin' t'me . They lays out b'yond where I've ventured afore , an' fine ones they is mates they'll make ye ignore , yer cares an' yer troubles if that be yer wish , t'day we be trollin' fer poetry fish . Their size tho' they varies can be fairly big . ( I'm usin' me special deep-sea wordin' rigs ) At times they be few , maybe but two or three , they's plenty o' sport tho' an' keepers they be ! Me lines 'ave been baited an' cast to the stern ( that be the back of me ship I 'ave learned ) We troll not too deep or these fish they'll not bite. 'tis not very long 'til one hoves in t'sight . A beauty this one be , me starboard hook sets , the battles begun ,'tis as good as it gets! This poetry fishin' be grand fun y'see an' them poetry fish ? Well , now that would be thee ! |
