I\u00a0was out in a boat with Grandad Blake<\/p>\n
Late last Sunday at the lake.<\/p>\n
He took me out to grant my wish<\/p>\n
And show me how to catch a fish.<\/p>\n
It was a chance to ask about<\/p>\n
Bass and perch and speckled trout<\/p>\n
And if we caught one, could we cook it<\/p>\n
If we were smart enough to hook it?<\/p>\n
And I used all kinds of fishing terms<\/p>\n
Like “rods” and “reels” and “lures” and “worms”.<\/p>\n
He said if I wanted to get my wish,<\/p>\n
That I should just shut up and fish.<\/p>\n
He was grinning when he said it<\/p>\n
But it didn”t take me long to get it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
