Regina Mcintosh Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

A Jolly Fisherman

Rosy red, his cheeks said
As good cheer he spread
Laughter, like a merry kiss
Touched hearts with bliss

Fish in every variety caught
Delicious nutrition he brought
So that every mouth watered
For the delicacies he slaughtered

Rosy red, his cheeks burned
With joy we never learned
His smile, catching as a cold
Reminded his heart was gold

Fish, all different tastes, flavors
Brought to tummies, savors
Yummy delights that once splashed
In the sea before his knife slashed…

Away the fins, the gills, the frills
A fish to flaunt the fisherman’s skills

Andrea Dietrich August 16, 2022 at 1:07 PM Cute verse, Gina. I like that she is wanting it to be for children this time. I hope to make somewhat of a nursery rhyme of it.

L Milton Hankins August 16, 2022 at 8:57 AM Nice poem, Gina. I haven't checked out Julia's latest contest, but I'm guessing it's about fishing. Good luck to you!
