Revered Master Fisher

Tell them,

That,

Master Fisher journeyed for miles

Through the cactus and acacia farms

They gave him their warm welcome

On the way to the river

Tell them,

That,

He stumbled 

On those sharp pebbles by the river

And the honed gravels gave his feet the kiss of his life

Limpets injected the hallux of the healthy man

The kind river treated his horse to ragwort

Tell them,

That,

He dressed his hook

But fingerlings threw party with it

Strong tides beat his trap ashore

School of fish silhouetted in his humble basket

Tell them,

That,

He hooked but venomous

He hooked but drop of water

He wished to be on board

The finest cruises passing by

Tell them,

That,

Sweat laundered his clothes

He grew goosebumps on summer

And sunburns on winter

Tell them,

That,

Now that the gold coin bears his name

The flame came from wet flints
