Crawdad Creek

Day #5 April's PAD Challenge entry:

The perfect formula for a summer day:
3 pieces of uncooked bacon
2 feet of fishing line… each
1 blue bucket
You and me.

Latch key kids, adventurers, Entrepreneurs
Vigorously shaking bacon tied lines over THE mighty bucket
Never touching those ugly pinchers or twitchy feelers
Stubborn crawdads not wanting to let go of our bait
PLOP!
Drop your line again, I’ll grab the bucket!
