The One That Got Away

I live in a reservoir big and deep,
To be caught is any fisherman’s dream.
I saw a worm in the water blue,
I bit it.
I fell for it.
I was trapped!

The fisherman reeled in as fast as he could.
I struggled and wiggled.
First to the left.
Then to the right.
I am off the hook!

Into my home,
The reservoir big and deep.
The home I love.
The home I cherish.
