A Fisherman Tale
There was an old man who stood at the sea bank
Watching two fishermen casting there nets out to the sea
As he pierced his eyes even further off shore, he saw a mermaid swim bye.
The mermaid stumble across the two fishermen casting their nets
While their waited, one fisherman said to the other can you see the mermaid
The fisherman replied 'No' and continued to cast his net out to the sea.
The mermaid acknowledging that she had been seen waved to the fishermen
The fisherman once again asked the other fisherman can you see the mermaid waving out at sea
The fisherman once again replied 'No' and continued to cast his net even further out .
As the mermaid drew nearer the fisherman once again asked the fisherman
Can you see the mermaid approaching the fisherman furiously replied,
'No' I can't see a damn thing, the sunlight is beaming down at me
I cast my damn contact lens out at sea.
