Fishing She reeled me in like speckled trout A line of love and sweet devout Played me with a gentle hand And branded me forever’s brand Picked me up with gentle net Made my home within your let Turned me to a knight of love And favored me her velvet glove And I have kept the castle keep Each day I sweep the roses heap Stay the night in winsome wile And smile upon the barge and Nile And all this while that time flew bye Her beauty never changed my eye She is today a flower rare And all I do all day is stare Without you I would surely die As a sigh o’er a butterfly |

Your devotion fills the ocean *S* Jonah can keep the whale ... I got me a Sy-salmon.  *L*does that make Randy a smart mouth bass? LOL Using bait of rhymes divine and your heart that shines...how could you not be a trophy catch.  And Sy? about that closing couplet... *sigh*  *winkiewinkie*   |

Sy...such a lovely poem! Beyond the place of pool's cold this poet told of a fisherman's strong and steady hold and what she thought to spin of gold was a fiber pure and unafraid made from peace and love. So from her chair she cast with pole and filament naught a line of words with nimble fingers fast across a keyboard the letters sought to find connection in this pool vast the fisherman's heart was caught. |
