Learning to fish

Text within this block will maintain its original spacing when published

Give a man a fish they say
And you feed him for a day
Teach a man to fish, however
You won’t have to feed him again ever
I suppose those sayings are true
Especially the ones that aren’t new
But life is rarely simple or clear
As the stories we hold dear
We watched a bear with cubs four
And feeding them was quite a chore
She tried to teach them to fish
But learning was not their wish
They preferred to lie in the sun
While mom got the fishing done
And they’d complain and cry
Without giving fishing a try
I suppose the young were learning
While mother her hibernation earning
And how all of this do I know?
We got to watch the show!
