Bowling Fun

BOWLING FUN

Bowling can be fun
But – ball in
gutter?
Ball point reaches
pins

12 strikes – perfect
game
No strikes – dirty,
rotten shame
Ha, ha, aint this
fun?

Have another beer
When you can see
twenty pins
Bowling can be fun

My wife has beat me
She only weighs
one-twenty
Bowled her weight
plus ten
