He stood on the edge of the pier
Fishing alone
Sunrise
Without a phone
Surprise
Rain stopped
And then he caught a big one

He ran to the car with his catch
Fishing was fun
Bargain
Cheaper than steak
Big win
Home soon
And then he shared his good luck

He walked in the door of his house
Fishing today
Got one
What should we make?
Want some?
Lunch time
And then he parked his big truck

Shared the same story all day
Why did he let the big one go?

Cooked a big bucket of fish
Why did he let the big one go?

He stood on the edge of the pier
Fishing again
Sunrise
Without a phone
Surprise
Time stopped
And then he caught a big one
