Written for Esther’s Laughing Along
With A Limerick. The prompt word
is ‘cast’ and this is my limerick.

The old fisherman went out to cast
Hoping his catch would not be his last
But he hooked his own ear
And he shed a big tear
As the trout swam away rather fast

I can imagine as the hook is very sharp

And barbed, which makes it very painful to remove. 😖
