The Court In Our White House

THE COURT IN OUR WHITE HOUSE

THE COURT IN OUR WHITE HOUSE
GIVING THE CHILDREN AND SPOUSES
YOUR NET
MAKING EACH CHANCE
YOURS AND OURS HOOPS
AS WE PLAY LIFE WITH WORLD BALL
GIVING THE PEACE IN OUR BOUNCE
WITH EVERY LAST OUNCE

HOPING NOT TO MOVE AS WE FALL
DEFENSE NOT TO HURT
KEEPING FOCUS WITH BOTH TEAMS
SAFELY AS WE TRY
KEEPING OUR CLOSEST EYE’S
WINNING OR LOOSING WE ARE THE U.S.A. TEAM
STANDING AND RUNNING TO THE BASKET
WITH THAT LEAP
HIT’S OUR TENNIS SHOES, FEET
GIVING HOPE TO ALL
WITH YOUR COURT BALL
