Gone Fishing
By Lisa Noe

I recall a day so very grand,
a day with love from daddy's hand.
it was a time with fun filled experiences.
where we went fishing and caught some crabs.
They were neat, I was oh so excited.
Red, with claws that made my eyes so big,
like some large saucers with pools of green.
They tried to claw me, but I was too bright
I took some pliers and grabbed it's claws,
so it wouldn't pinch me and hurt my hand.
Daddy smiled as I was so excited.
He laughed as I gushed about my catch.
It was a terrific memory for me.
I'll never forget it, no sir'ee
