Bread or cake, which would you like?
Her head inquired from a pike....

double reverse pike
red flash twisting in free fall
autumn leaves last dance...

the pike trawls the shallows
motherless ducklings
nestle together
the heron watches
motionless...

there once was a pike they named peter
who wanted to go see a cedar
but a girl came along
with a fishing hook on
and took the fish home just to meet her...

I can fish on Lake Notashebun 
in September for pike: 'Great Northern.'  
Known as 'Esox lucius,' 
it's so delicious 
breaded and deep fried lakeside; that's heaven....

I will play my music for people I like
On a stool in front of a stand up mike
No jumping jack run
Across stage in fun
Just songs about people I met down the pike...

Our brother up stairs we don’t like.
This Chip he does love is a pike!
     He plays with him games
     forsaking us dames.
Computer you go on a hike!

Flirt

Colin the Crayfish has been dishing up the dirt, 
Saying, Little Polly Pike is an outrageous flirt. 
Tim Trout’s going to be her new finned friend,
She hooked him by a rock pool, on the river bend....

SPIKE
There is nothing to overcome the greatest spike
Sometimes we are just the simple dike
Is there anything they can change to dislike
Let's talk about the worst pike

Sneak In To Take A Peak

Part of the river was  just a creek,
And into America we would sneak;
Pennsylvania Pike,
Where we did like;
We ended up living on Pike's Peak.

Had taken a hike on a pike;
Someone ran over my bike.

HIKE
Sometimes I have to wonder what would you like
Many times I pretend to be the quiet pike
Do you see how eerie the sky when the lightning strike
Don't we come together for the next trip to hike

  As my son was driving down the pike
     a driver cursed him, “You dirty kike”

  My son turned slowly and waved goodbye
     calling out proudly, ‘Am Yisroel Chai!’ *

They fight tooth and nail all those who don't like

Behind the scenes are plotting how to strike 

When see someone to excel

Declare war make his life hell

Till he gives up or pierce him with a pike

Life’s Metaphor
Written: By Tom Wright
5/10/04

Time was, when as a road, my future days were cast,
Extending far beyond what my mortal eye could see.
But time, systematically, has made my pike the past,
Now, if viewed, from memory’s rear view it must be.

Take a hike, Zebulon Pike
Lofty spires sublimely inspires
Twisted pines, ties that bind
Gnarled roots, leather boots
Boulders cover, birds hover
Desperate schemed, pleasant dreams
Lofty grndeur, glad I'm here
Rusted rock, nature's walk
Talking hawks, gawking flocks
Drink your fill, eternities still...

rocks watching the moon rise
over the banyan grove
in the shadows 
the monkeys fornicate
ears and eyes recording
this singularly unique but ordinary evening
the glowing moon never moves an iota
while it is being watched
the jumping pike
makes a triumphal splash
all motion moves in invisible chains...

Let the sun dance on your bodies
Dream, People, Dream
Let the sun dance on your bodies
A new song comes down the pike 
We'll be ready for it!
Ready for it!
Dream, people, dream 
Love is coming to you 
Listen to our music 
Listen to our music
Let dawn dance
Let dawn dance
We'll find peace
Dream, people, dream...

Steam rising from the lake
excitement in their eyes
off to catch the big one
casting countless tries

checking all our gear
assured everything is right
these were the best of times
rising sun a pure delight

a good tension in the air
sons hoping for a strike
our boat drifting in the water
in search of northern pike...

They are around in many forms.
Human, spiritual alike,
Taken for granted into norms,
Now and then awaiting their strike,
Traveling upon heaven’s pike,
Angels are among us each day.
Though not seen, means nothing, I say.
Upon earth, they guide many souls.
Some that does, some that do not, pray.
Cherubs serve, God’s glorious goal....

I fly up so high
floating in the sky
watching below for my prey
If they knew they'd fear
for them death is near
This is part of natures way

I make my attack
hit the water smack
With my talons grab on tight
The pike in my grip
it will never slip
It is trapped within my might



Trying a form Dr. Ram's explained called an "Alouette"

Daddy went out to do some fishing,
And he caught himself a pike.
He put it in a basket,
And brought it home upon his bike.
He threw it in a frying pan,
With a little pad of butter.
Dusted it with salt and pepper,
And we had it for our supper.
Daddy said he couldn't cook,
And yet the pike was rather tasty.
When dear mother cooks the fish,
It turns out rather pasty....

A young cyclist called Jimmy Pike,
Famous for riding his cross-country bike,
Hit an echidna, his tire went flat,
Stopping his long trek,there he sat,
I think he might have to hitch-hike.

 A kangaroo came jumping strong,
 Paused, then asked, "What is wrong?" 
" A wayward echidna with bad eyesight,
got in the way and stopped my bike,"
Now the pair are bouncing along....
