A jolly fisherman came ashore in his old boat with just one oar. He must have two to row back home; with only one, his boat would roam. And with no fear, he sang out loud a song to which he danced and bowed- a jolly song that asked the sea to bring his oar back- one, two, three! He smiled and danced a jolly way and twirled and whirled in grand display- when all at once, the waves splashed high! He smiled and breathed a happy sigh! For heading towards the sandy beach his oar was almost within reach brought in by dolphins, safe and sound- the fisherman's lost oar was found! The dolphins love their jolly friend- and on their help, he can depend! August 17, 2022
