Fishing

Your old mans favorite past time.

Your old mans old quiet lesson.

Let the small ones go, they still have a life to grow. 

Sometimes you'll drag up branches from the bottom,

and sometimes you'll lose a good one. 

And sometimes while you're reeling in your line,

you'll realize you're trying to catch yourself.

Let me know what you think, don't be harsh on grammar please. I'm just expressing myself.

Quite a nice poem there. Though I never went fishing in my life, but I could sort of see the picture. A person is fishing, he sometimes misses good fish and sometimes drags up wet branches. Quite beautiful. Keep writing.

I like the way you express yourself. Good read and would make a good spoken word art piece!
