Golfing Near a Gigantic Pond

Golfing Near A Gigantic Pond or Old Deep and Wide Why would you want to go down in history? But to me it had all became a big mystery As to why any weird women wave a wand At a protruding golfer playing near a pond. Obviously high over it he will have to shot Even if he is an ardent audacious old coot With some shorts clinging to his each thigh For the women to see when they pass by. Was heading towards hole, we think a nine When someone said he was out of his mind Trying to drive ball between two tall trees Straight into stagnant air without breeze. Between two trees ball would battle its way Towards the gigantic green without delay And only then to end up in a total mishap By having hit ball into a deep sand trap. Not only was the trap deep but also wide So now DEEP AND WIDE started to chide Golfer and since have offered him this name Which has started improving his terrible game. Shooting perilous par or less became obsessed With new golf ball he had presently possessed That could be driven by him 300 yards or more His awful game has became one he does adore.

G'day James... oh yes, for the novice individual, golf can be very frustrating. In the mind it looks easy; but in fact that little white ball has its own mind - Lindsay

We need to invent a gyroscopic golf ball. That would be interesting. Jim Horn
