Big-Mouth Bass
An April morning, as the climbing sun
tipped up in sight, and lit the coming day
and colored red, after a storm was done,
I cast my plug, a stinger--red and gray--

to where it looked the likely place to me,
where hides the hog--from minnows swimming by;
then feeds...

Premium Member Bruce Played a One String Bass
Once was a folk singer back in the sixties
It was surely my time to shine
Along with the great Peter Paul and Mary
They seemed like good friends of mine

A group of six, The Canadiana Folksingers
Appeared on Canadian TV
A couple of albums and two or three shows
Played...

Premium Member Brotherhood Bass and Black
His voice was loved,his colour not
Only the former him fame brought
Summa cum laude in study and sport
His origins drew him up socially short
Jim Crow laws were the sinister wedge
Which left him at his country's edge
His nation's shame burned deeply within
Denying forgiveness for his darkness of...

Bass Grin, Amen
I go to church and say amen once a week
But in my boat and in my spot
I am much more patient, quiet, and meek
I toss my line it’s just the right shot!!
Again, I will say amen as the bass does grin a lot.

My Bass Guitar String
Pull my string as i sit my back on you
i can make anything you want me to
your hands touching mine at the rhythm of blues
playing fastly like you do with your bass guitar, oh! 

And you said, "Relax, don't scream!"
i did bite my string to...

Sledding With Sea-Bass
Snowflakes arrive upon the scene

Showing off in grand fashion

Doing somersaults as they approach the ground

My eyes begin to sing!

Coating my city like icing on my favorite cake

Angel food cake with almond butter icing!

One more slice please!

I'll have a second serving!

Soon I'll be at my favorite...

Bass Beat
Within music, there are two things
The bright lights in the sky at night time
and completely losing it
We keep keep abusing it
Its not that we are choosing it

Its the beat
Its the Bass, beneath our feet
All these people eradicating heat
We admit defeat

Here we will always dance
There's always...

alone in her...

To: the Bass Player
Put me through the crusher –
Break me down to ashes, to dust,
To the inconsequential crumbs on your plate...
I have become less than nothing,
A speck on your windscreen, a ghost 
Tangled in gossamer flesh, with a broken heart 
Clutched between her fingers...
You broke that poor weeping...

Words are strange when first letters are switched
Such as “bice noobies” our life is enriched
Sing along with “Bony Tennet” we resort
Wearing “Talse Feeth” and “Shockey Jorts”
If I lost you along the way, I'm a “bon of a sitch”

flew east in a wink

right into the drink

losing her sons boarding pass.

"the Bass"
There was a young man who loved fishing,
And left his young wife alone wishing-

     That a gentleman of class,
     would release her at last,

from the lips of the bass she'd been kissing!...

Bass Strait Sealing Rush
The Bass Strait sealing rush began in eighteen-o-three,
where at least a dozen vessels were wrestling with the sea,
for the China trade was booming, for the want of skins and oils.
This was the first real export, from Australian soils.

With prices high as gold, more entered in...

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...

Premium Member The Fisherman
Off he goes again into his own little world
To catch a Largemouth Bass.
Fishing rod and reel in hand
He takes another pass.

With his Bass Tracker boat 
Trolling motor set on five.
The thrill of the catch
Keeps him feeling alive.

The sound of the water slapping the boat
And the...
