A golly whopper's catch

There was a young woman who yearned for a mate.
Sadly cat food was all that she ate...
The cans with seafood she clearly favored and from
this diet she never wavered.
Many thought her an attractive gal, in spite of slight
whiskers and her woeful meow.
None dared go close as her breath was so foul..
Come night on a twinkling star she would wish.
At the break of each dawn she'd gargle and swish.
Regardless she always reeked heavily of fish.
She couldn't rid of this seafood scent which seeped
thru her pores and wouldn't relent, so she
moved outdoors and bathed at a brook.
One day she got snagged by a golly whopper hook.

Dear Nancy, you made me laugh out loud, what a delightful, quirky tale! I adore how you spin whimsy and longing into such vivid, fishy detail. The ending is pure, I never saw that golly whopper hook coming! Wonderful, playful spirit and sharp wit. Even the oddest stories can reel us in with charm and a big, bold heart. Spring Blessings, My Dear Nancy, Daniel
