Lost Balls

I dreamt of playing golf in Covid times
I cannot play actually as virus confines
Bereft of clubs we threw our balls
Ignoring fairways they hit tree walls
Lost balls make for stiff golfing crimes.

Interesting work. One could always play in the back yard or at least hit some golf balls for practice. Don't know anything about golf except for what I have seen on TV. Thanks for the honor of placing in your contest. I corrected my poem just in case anyone looked at it to write one of their own. Thanks for dropping by. Sara

Hi, Mohan, I can't believe I never saw your limerick yet. I so enjoy them! Hope to see many new poems from you in the new year, and I wanted to thank you for my placement in your contest (in case you did not see my reply to your lovely comment)

Sorry about your inability to get out there now but all bad things come to an end. I hope that there will be a vaccine soon for everyone. Enjoyed reading your work. Thanks for the honor of placing in your contest. I took a little rest from soup then I had to have surgery for carpal tunnel release. I am still healing from that so I can only do a little bit at a time. Sara

Lol, reminds of a sign seen in a golf club changing room, golfers are kindly reminded not to wash their balls in the sink. Hope you're well Mohan. Greetings from Turkey. Tom
