Golf Footle

The grass alas is shorn like corn the dew eschews forlorn this morn the crowd avowed the ball and all then groans and moans clubs thrown are known. Embued and hued the words like swords wrong swing the sting bad lie too high the squeeze on knees in pleas? to seize the gold and hold glory story though droll their goal control cajole that ball to fall or roll in hole August 22,2022 For Brian Strand's Premiere Choice Contest FIRST PLACE TROPhy!
