The snow so deep… That it was over our heads… Was a melting by the hour!
Give it a day, or two at most… and with this heat… it would all be gone, forever!
But in the meantime, we were sadly stuck, in mud, deep, within our...

GONE FISHING

A few years ago, I went fishing,
With Larry & Don off the Jones Beach Pier,
We had no clue if the fish were biting,
But at least the day was sunny and clear.

We first stopped at the bait and tackle shop,
To pick up a batch of...

I know of nothing that can happen badly,
When a man goes fishing with a wee laddie.
The poles they carry along with the bait,
Says, ‘Gone fishing early and staying late.’

When a man goes fishing with a small boy,
The lad is as happy as playing with...

Such a wonderful sunny day of a day,
walking along in my walkiest way.
Waving to birds as they sing in the tree,
each song so special, just for me.

I came upon a sparkling lake,
under a shade tree a rest I would take.
On the softest grass in the...

Gone Fishing Montauk
It's the weekend and time to decompress 
Hopped on the boat and out to sea I went
Gone fishing out of Montauk New York
In the Atlantic Ocean 

With just perfect wind and right tide 
And beautiful sunshine 
A fabulous feeling spread thru me
I knew it was...

My father warned me against fishing on a Sunday.
Said God's wrath would be on my head.
But everyone was still sleeping.
So I knew I could make it back before the first eye opened.
I could see the lake from my window.
So I knew I could make it...

There's a fellow named Robert O'Toole.
He's the principal down at the school.
He cut classes today,
So the gossips all say.
Went fishing for bass in the car pool....

Gone Fishing- a Whale of a Tale
This may sound a tad bit strange
But I can promise you it's true
It all took place in the fishing town
Of Pleasant Valley one sunny afternoon

All of the sudden fishing line started popping
Out of the lake onto the shore
Not one or two lines, expect as you...

Gone Fishing
It was one of them nights with nothing to do
We sat round the log fire in the inn like you do
Telling ghost stories and massive white lies
Old Harry snuffed his pipe out, light shone in his eyes

I will tell you a story, once fishing, its...

Gone fishing.

We decided to go fishing, 
Granddad Dad and I . 
We booked a Bed and Breakfast 
up in the Isle of Skye. 

We set off Friday morning 
with lots of fishing gear, 
and Granddad even managed 
to sneak aboard some beers. 

Up the road...

To say the world is an odd place'
is to say it may or may not rain tomorrow
There is the dilemma,
for nothing about the world
between birth and death is understandable

As an example
A young man walked into  a store
where I was waiting to check out
hanging from...
