Marc O'Brien Poet Rhyme

Maturing Competitive Paths

Leaf dies in air  

Trees going bare  

Death stalks the woods  

Of those athletically good  

Sweating summer heat  

In games where they compete  

Never do they cheat  

Being honest and true  

Acting cool  

Laughing fools  

Champions determined  

Life lessons learning  

Decision final and confirmed  

Hardware issue no longer a concern  

Northern success exposed 

Confederates propose  

Move inside  

Red lights will guide  

Scores made  

Making the grade  

Finally, a trade  

Check signed, saying paid  

Shutting mouth  

Going south  

Community warm  

Staying in University dorm  

Will make this undergraduate program a winner  

Before the all-inclusive meal plan dinner  

Then off to the library and study  

Learn how to make, investment money  

Earning a degree, that is what is funny  

Since making field goals really wasn’t a realistic thing  

Along with not being able to sing  

But books in print  

Will hint  

Proper direction  

After securing academic protection
