Fish Bait
Fish bait
What does a fisherman use for his bait?
That keeps him out fishing so often so late?
Fish is the answer in many a case
Which he casts in the waters in this and that place.
He tells himself that he ‘has a family to feed,
But he doesn’t yet see he already has what they need
But he wastes it in his haste to do more and more
Whilst, in reality, his family grows poor
So listen you fishermen and learn what to do
The fish that your family craves may well be just you.
