The Long Fishing Trip

February 26, 2015
By Anonymous

They got in the boats,
from the dock that floats,
and they set off to find,
some walleyes.

When they got there,
they threw in their lines.
They played cards to pass the time.
Sadly they waited forever and a day,
but didn’t catch a thing in the bay.
So they called it a day and said let’s hit the hay.

Then they packed up to head home,
as the sun started to set,
but on their way home, they hit some loam,
and they all took a dip.

&quot;You&#039;ve got to learn to move on, because life will move on. If you don&#039;t move on, you&#039;ll just end up in over your head.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;Never regret anything because at the time, it was exactly what you wanted.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;We accept the love we think we deserve.&quot;
