Piscator’s Perennial Pleasures

It’s the same old crick

     And the same old boat;

It’s the same old rod

     And the same old float.

And the same old line

     And the same old hook,

And the same old pull

     To the same old nook.

It’s the same old bait

     From the same old can;

It’s the same old hat

     On the same old man.

It’s the same old bite

     And the same old run;

It’s the same old game

     And the same old Fun.
