The Tree Bass

The tree bass likes a solid perch -
Frequents the oak, avoids the birch.
Returns to its ancestral lawn
Yearly when time comes to spawn.
The tree bass.

The tree bass huddles in the rain
And waits for Someone to explain.
It shiver-shimmers in the breeze.
Thinks, "Some day I will feel at ease".
The tree bass.

The tree bass feels an idle whim
To find a stream and try to swim
Yet knows it's best to not look down.
It does the opposite of drown.
The tree bass.

Come Easter, when the shorn lambs bleat,
Its firm and flaky flesh is sweet.
The tree bass.
