Fishnets and chaps

Fishnets and Chaps

My Harley stood among Harley’s

On this fishless weekend

When not wetting a line

I party with friends

T & A and leathers

Fishless perhaps?

I was reminded frequently
by fishnets and chaps

 

Throughout the hot day

my thirst quenched with beer

The wet ‘T’ contest
made us all cheer

As evening approached

still, there was no lapse

of the continuous sight

of fishnets and chaps

A hand rolled cigar

and Gentleman Jack

kept me content

though fishing I lacked

The band played into darkness

as beer flowed from 12 taps

I frolicked and I partied

among fishnets and chaps

Bemused in my van

on the blanket I laid

and dreamt I was fishing

for a leather clad mermaid
