Wolfgang Carl Poet Rhyme

The Giant Bass

I caught a giant bass today
Except I really didn't
So large it was it broke my line
You really should have seen it

But as far as telling stories goes
It's the best outcome of all
Escape'd bass are always large
And landed ones quite small

J. Summers February 7, 2023 at 5:45 PM Ah yes, fishermen and the tales they tell. Liked the poem very much. John J. Summers February 10, 2023 at 7:53 AM See my poem “Turquoise Lake,” I think you might like it. John Wolfgang Carl February 9, 2023 at 3:03 AM John - Thank you very much. It's actually part of a larger poem that I will eventually post.

Arlene Binner February 6, 2023 at 7:50 AM Being a fisherman myself, Since early childhood with my Dad, And loving poetry as I do, I'd say, That's not too bad!"
