Notes About The Poem

Fishing For Floaters - Warning Its a Poopy Poem

Have you heard about fishing for turds …
It’s for children and maybe for nerds
For brown floaters you’ll fish
Or there's nets which you swish
For once I’m almost lost for words!

My granny was shocked and appalled
Suggesting this toy be blackballed
Cos small kids may copy
Real poo’s (firm or sloppy)
If this happened I think I’d be galled

Thanks to my super friend Sundae for telling me about this toy!

Lindsay Laurie September 15, 2020 at 5:38 PM Hello Jan ... yes indeed; fishermen call them 'blind mullets' down here. They have a tendency to be avoided - thank you Jan - Lindsay
