Balls


Hard balls, soft balls
Hiding on the loft balls
Red balls, white balls
Feeling feather light balls
Big balls, small balls
Hitting on the wall balls
Golf balls, tennis balls
Plastic table tennis balls
Baseballs, cricket balls
Bowling out the wicket balls
Basketballs, footballs
Throwing those shot-put balls
Dull balls, shining balls
Exercise reclining balls
Rubber balls, hockey balls
Snooker balls, sticky balls
Volley balls, beach balls
Jumping out of reach balls
Handballs, throwballs,
Playing with the snowballs
Rugby balls, yo-yo balls
In the darkness glow balls
Sweet balls, meat balls
Getting ready to eat balls
Glass balls, round balls
Find them all around balls

What a good time read this poem is! I didn't write in time to enter, but I was also going to make balls the topic in the List contest. You made your ball write so perky that I'm glad it was you who entered a contest with that theme. Please don't think less of me, but the 3rd to last line put me right in the gutter (I worked as the admin on too many construction sites). So good to be back on Soup and enjoying your talent. Congratulations on your placement. CayCay

Now you realize I have to look up snooker balls "Snooker balls, sticky balls" I stopped right at this line and yelled "WHAT are snooker balls?"
