the golfer

One could sense the trepidation
and the feel of wonderment
in the voice the commentator
upper class english gent
a man stood tall
with his stick and ball
poised positioned
and ever pensive
firm resolve and ready
as he stood at the 18th hole
hands firm and steady
as he gripped
the stick (or iron)
looking a the ball
round and small
all eyes upon him
the world as well
so he got himself
to the ready
his shoulders moving just so
he swung and hit
that little ball
up in the air just
see it go
one could sense the trepidation
and the feel of wonderment
in the voice the commentator
upper class english gent
as the ball shot
through the air
two ducks were flying near
and pop pop
hit them for six
diverting the ball into a stream
while ducks
now were dropping in -concused
so goodbye birdie and boogie
ornotholoy and the spooks too
aint it a shame
end of the 18th hole
but the pure consolation
is that you got duck for tea
times 2....



aww theres a terrible pity
if you dont love golf today
but if you do
its just a thought
when a golfer
simply gets-an off day
