John Williams Poet Rhyme

Home Sportsman

I'm a home sportsman
And what a career I've had,
Watching sports around the globe,
I take the good with the bad.

I have to keep my fitness up
So I drink coffee by the cup,
Excuse me while I adjust my lounge chair,
Wow, my horse just got up.

But one thing's always bothered me,
It makes me cringe with fear,
If my remote control finger's injured,
It might end an illustrious sporting career.

I think there's many men around the country that may cringe a little when they read it. I t was always a running joke with my dad. Whenever there were two big sporting events on at the same time I always used to say him,"I hope I don't sprain my remote control finger, it will wreck my weekend. Henceforth I have just made the idea into a poem. Thanks Tony......kind regards------John
