Granny Grace: Fisherwoman
Granny in her hipwaders
Standing in the stream
Such chilly water
It would make you scream
But to catch a fish
She would rather tough it out
Everyone would wish
They could catch a trophy trout
Granny could accomplish this
Quite without a doubt
She would rarely ever miss
When she cast it out
Steelhead and German Brown
Pretty Rainbow Trout
People in the nearest town
Heard us cheer and shout
Our Granny deserves the crown
Look what she pulled out
A gigantic German Brown
That's a trophy trout

Excellent poetry! I can actually see this one happening. Great imagery. :-)
I agree with all the comments--a precious tribute to a wonderful granny. Mine were nice but pretty traditional.
The poem flows brilliantly with almost perfectly natural rhymes. A poetic accomplishment.
I see u have been inspired by the Muse these past few days. Brava!
