The Fish

Across the lake I started to look and with nervous hope I baited my hook. A ripple I spotted gave me a sign and in that direction I cast out my line.
I waited for news with a smirk and great zeal and was rewarded for it with a tug on my reel. The fish flashed his size, "A five footer I thought. He'd look great on my wall if he ended up caught."
So I played with the fish as day passed into night but he wouldn't go down no matter how tough the fight. Finally I left it where it had been. The fish won this round but he'd see me again.

This poem has a great rhyme-scheme, yet you've written it out of line/stanza form. Which actually adds to the feeling of this being a story as well. Interesting approach, nice poem. |
