The swimming hole is calm and clear.  The sun sparkles off the ripples that form on the surface of the water.  Fish occasionally jump from the water and splash back in.

I usually go to the park to watch my child play. I am a one and only child. I am my parent's favorite child.
Hi! You gonna swim, or just catch fish? I just came to soak my feet in the cold water before my long journey home.  Are you big enough to know how to swim? Oh yeah, I've been swimming since I could walk. My parents love the water. Wonderful!  And can you catch fish?  I usually fish from my boat, but  *reaches out and catches a fish in my hand as it jumps out of the water, then releases it* I can also do it the old fashioned way *wink*! Whoa! That was fast! Can you teach me? Aye.  The first lesson is to watch.  Watch the patterns that the fish leap in.  Then it's as simple as putting your open hand where the fish is going to be and closing your hand at the right time. Do you have to use bait? I bet you have to be really still. Very still and very aware.  Don't need bait if you pay attention!  *catches another fish as it leaps* Ok, let me try! Hold this for me. But be careful! If it breaks, we're both in trouble. *holding it very carefully with the crystal ball I already had*  Slow and easy wins the race, small child.  Just watch for where the fish is going to be, then put your open hand there and close it as soon as you feel it full of fish. *swipes three times, misses* Ah, I know I can get it! One more shot, that's all I need. You can do it, just concentrate.  You've got this!
