Billy Learns How To Fish-Nursery Rhyme

Grandpa taught Billy how to fish.
At first, they didn't catch one thing,
Catching a big one was the boy's wish;
When he did, it made his heart sing.

Grandpa was so proud of the little guy,
that he bought him a new fishing pole.
Grandpa took Billy home; he waved bye.
Billy was happy that he reached his goal.

Hi Alexis. I'm not entering the nursery rhyme contest, but hope you will with this one. It is fine! One thing you might fix. "by" should be "bye" in the next to last line. Hope you don't mind my suggestion.
