CATFISH LAKE

AT CATFISH LAKE, ACROSS THE VALLEY

FROM THE MOUNTAIN PEAKS,

LIVE HUGE, BROWN CATFISH,

AND FOOD, THEY ALWAYS SEEK.

THEY ARE SO VERY, VERY SMART

THEY KNOW WHAT FISH HOOKS MEAN,

THEY NIBBLE THE BAIT FROM THEM,

SWIM AWAY, AND THEIR EYES GLEAM.

THE LARGER FISH IN THE LAKE

IS LANCELOT, THE GREAT.

HE LIVES AT THE BOTTOM, IN THE GRASS,

AND RULES THE OTHERS, EVEN THE BASS.

LANCELOT HAS TAUGHT HIS BRETHREN

NOT TO TAKE THE HOOK AND BAIT.

HE TAUGHT THEM JUST TO NIBBLE THE FOOD,

AND MAKE THE FISHERMEN IRATE.

I HAVEN'T BEEN TO CATFISH LAKE IN A WHILE,

BUT IF I WERE TO GO THERE TOMORROW MORNING,

I THINK I WOULD FIND BEAUTIFUL LANCELOT

AT THE BOTTOM OF THE LAKE, SNORING. HAHAHA
