I AM A FISHERMAN

I am a fisherman.

I wonder why the fish are not eating my bait.

I hear splashing waves.

I see fish in the distance.

I want to catch these big fish.

I am very glad that I brought my big rod.

I pretend that I’m a fish.

I feel my heart pounding inside my chest.

I touch the water to act like bait so the fish will come.

I understand fishing is just luck.

I say “ Come on fish, eat my bait.”

I dream of a big striper coming and eating my bait.
