Rhyming Fun

My favorite game has a shuttlecock.
You can hear my shrieks around the block. 
People come running looking for detective chalk.
Thinking I was killed by a moron’s Glok.

You see I am not much of a sports jock.
During hopscotch I can barely find my rock.
I noticed today that I ruined my summer frock
Badminton has torn a hole in my new lace sock.

People are standing along the gray sidewalk.
This racquet game they had better not knock.
I watch my cohort give them a quick pickpock.
These Items I will later help her hock.

We’ll take them to swap down by the pirate’s dock.
I enjoy seeing the sneaky way she doth stalk.
Wallets disappearing, oh, what a shock!
They will be stirred up for days, talking the talk.

And, of course, not walking the walk, but you and I will not balk, their gaping mouths we will caulk, while astonished bystanders will gawk! Loved it!
