Fisherman Akkina a Devout Woman

FisherMan         AKKINA A Devout Woman   by James Edward Lee Sr.

Whose to say only
Only fishermen are men
Whose to pray for
I know of a divine fisher-girl
No, I mean Woman of God
A fisher of men
She'll give her prayers for them...
God's daughter, blessing to her family
Above the slaughter
Righteousness taught her
Cast her lots, beneath the waters
Be beyond callers
She is fishing with her own destiny
She's above the oceans and seas
Ahh!!  yes and she believes, believes
In angels fishings
Yes, angels fishing
Everyone lend a hand
She has cast her line, 
Threw her net out
Oh! what a devout Woman of God
Quite a fisherman
God's woman
A devout woman
of fishing of men 
God send, SUCH A BLESSING
AKKINA

Akkina Downing December 3, 2017 at 8:14 AM WOW, James, this is absolutely beautiful and had me tear up. I do enjoy my life adventure and fishing is devinetly a part of my life since a little girl. Not a fishing commercial just one of my hobby and for food of course. And God is my shepherd and I am now getting ready for church. Thank you so much James for this sweet and lovely poem. It's going in my faves. God bless you and your family... Hugs and smiles :)
