The Eleventh CommandmentA Poem by Roderick BlakemanA little rhyme to go with the pictureMoses went fishing with his mate
But glory be they had no bait The outcome was no fish came near though they waited for more than a year Moses got bored and played a trick with a wave of his hand it happened quick The water parted where his pal sat hook left dangling and looking a prat Moses laughed with all his might to see his friends ridiculous plight But the friend got angry, and harsh words were spoke it seems Moses pal can't take a joke So to calm him down, to make him hush Moses set fire to a bush The flames went high, and with friend in awe Moses created one more law Looking skyward, and praying to heaven he added commandment, number eleven "Thou shalt not take the pish especially while mate, is trying to fish" Amen © 2014 Roderick BlakemanAuthor's Note
