John's original poems
<< July 2008 | poems index | clock poem | September 2008 >>MUCK AND BULLETS(no grandfather clocks) (August 2008)When I was younger, I enjoyed two favourite past times,reading and fishing.I spent many happy hours with my line in the water and reading the contents of a good book at the same time.
One day while I was idling away at the seaside, an elderly gentleman approached me and asked if I often read books and fished in unison.When said that I did,he advised that for every fish I caught that day,he would supply me with an equal number of books.I thanked him kindly and then proceeded to have a most successful day in which I read a lot and lured many fish onto my line. As night time fell,I was up to my neck in books and mullet.
(Only the names have been changed, to protect those who neither read nor fish)
