The Fisherman

Poems

by Rosemarie E. Bishop

       

      I saw an old fisherman out in a boat,
      rocking alone on the rippling waters.
      "Are you fishing for sport?" I called out to him,
      trying to be friendly,
      but he only waved.
      Thinking that maybe he couldn't hear me to well,
      I called out again in a louder voice.
      "Are you fishing for food?" I asked him this time,
      hoping I'd get a response.
      Once again, he simply waved,
      as his boat drifted a little more.
      As he drew nearer, his face became clearer,
      and soon I knew who he was.
      "Are you fishing for me?" I asked Him this time,
      knowing the answer before He replied.
      The fisherman smiled as he held out his hand
      and said to me, "Come aboard, Child."
