The fisherman

There once was an old man that lived on a lake.

He was a great fisherman, so every day down to the water his poles he would take.

There was only one spot at the lake that the man would ever go.

And just one spot where his fishing line he would throw.

It was no wonder why, since he would reel in a big one with every cast of his line.

And to every fish he caught he would say, "tonight together, we shall dine. Yes tonight together, we will dine".

It happened the same way for twenty years or so.

But one day, at the fishing spot ,the man did not show.

The people around them parts began to wonder what happened to the old guy with the pole!

So, a search party was started. They looked for the man, high and low.

Yes they looked high and low.

The people began loosing hope after about a week,

for no one could find the man, as much as they did seek.

Many years after this strange disappearance took place,

in the minds of the people, this thing they could not erase.

Now it is rumored by many, that live near and far away,

that at a certain time each evening, from the lake a voice they hear say,

OLD MAN! Now that you have come to my house this time,

throw away your pole, you wont need it, because tonight together we shall dine. Yes tonight, you are mine to dine!
