At a Garage Sale

At a Garage Sale

Wish my golf energy was tough enough
To keep me from ending up in the rough
Each time I am heading for the green
And caught in some trap in between.

Great golf game is what I had in mind,
But when I ended up so far behind
Thought came to me I was about to croak 
Each time that I had taken another stroke.

Not only that things looked terribly dismal
All of my game ended up being abysmal
Told everyone about my high handicap
Said it all sounded like a total mishap.

After last stroke some people started to say
Golf game again I should never, ever play
So I ended up back home and without fail
Gave my golf things away at a garage sale.
