The alliteration with s's becomes onomatopoetic. It creates the sounds of the water. The r's create a sense of strength. The b's & p's create a explosive tone. Look at your lips as you pronounce the b or p words. Well done

Nicely done, JLR. The Pa in your poem was my Grand-Pa years ago. I was lucky, as your youngster in the poem was, to have a guiding hand while growing up.

This free verse, Life's Lessons Learned, finds the teachable moment when the wisdom of the family's forefathers travels again from father to son. Nice.

Thank you for sharing this club entry with us. It read as a story/poem. I am sure that was your intent. I enjoyed your memory and it brought up some of mine dealing with fishing.

Comment from Terry Broxson
This is an excellent poem. I hope the writing club likes it as much as I do. First, it has a great message of information passing from father to child to grandchild. Second, the imagery of the evening is beautiful. Excellent work. Terry.

Comment from Wendy G
I like the way you presented the teaching through generations of many sayings presenting wisdom for living and life lessons. Central to this is the fishing pole being passed through the generations.
Well done. Very effective and impactful.

You did a great job with the picture, JLR. I love the thought of Pa passing down the lessons he'd learned from his own father in that spot, using that pole. What a beautiful memory poem!
Blessings and thank you for sharing.
