A Jolly Fisherman

Every morning and everyday With a little hope and play The fisherman wakes up early morning When it shines or storming He makes hooks for the start of day He takes a nap and that’s okay The nights he watches and sees The sunset over the seas He throws the fishing net He hopes and prays the trap is set He counts his counts in time He then pulls and catches fish sublime Through the night he does this This is his work and he is in bliss The day starts again, sunrise He comes home with a catch for surprise He catches different type of fish The catch makes it on his dish The extra fish will be sold He needs the profit not fish that is old Then the day begins again As his life continues to make hooks began Each and every morning with twist and bends A jolly fisherman who takes naps and the day ends A Jolly Fisherman Date: 9/4/2022 Julia Ward
