Fishing
As I sit in this boat and look at the sky
I watch all the animals as they go by
The birds soar freely through the evening air
Manatees watching their young with delicate care
At times the alligators watch from a far
This is true nature, not some stuffy bar
A sunset that’s incredible what an awesome sight
It won’t be long now, here comes the night
The fish bite sporadically, a few at a time
Bright stars and the moon, look at how they shine
Mosquitoes starting to buzz, and sometime they sting
Listen to the frogs as they begin to sing
An occasional bat will fly around our poles
Can you hear the distant thunder as it rolls?
When I’m here I leave all my troubles far behind
Such a peaceful place for someone to unwind
What a beautiful world God has given for all to see
When I go fishing my soul is cleansed and feels so free!
