Fisherman(Co-Written With Sara Kendrick)

Swimming, life carefree
Net tightens around the school
Deliverance, grace
  
       May your hook always be cast
        Where you least expect fish caught

Synergism, save
These lost fish, grateful intent
Catch and release, Life

       Responsible now
       Freedom, new life in warm water
         Breach, spout words, joy, sing

School of life, protective school
Numbers rise with the right bait

Bait, love, nuturance
Guide... North Star...The leader Home
Reward eternal life

Thanks Mom!! you are the Best EVER!! No matter what Ashley says about you!! :)

Fish travel in "schools" and are never alone. There have been times I have dreamt of being a grouper. Always, I am warning the others to stay away from the "net" that pulls them into the gas chamber we call air. Spent many years fishing and really enjoyed this one! Love, Carolyn
