"For years, the riverbank was where

    Your soul felt most at peace

      Your heart was the most content when there

  With the fish and the geese

But then, your spirit came to rest

    Where angels chose to roam

And once equipped with ten pound test

  You made yourself at home.

The sky became your deep blue sea

            The clouds became your shore

And there, for all eternity

You sat with your friends galore

Each angel was a fisherman

Who had traded his pole

For golden wings and a game plan

At Heaven’s Fishing Hole"
