The Man Cave

Once a year they'll disappear
To a place their wives can't go
With chicken wings and other things
To watch the super bowl

A place where chick flicks don't abide
For testosterone rules this place
A place where a man can be a man
With no girly stuff or lace

A place so secret even the FBI
Doesn't know of its existence
Guarded by lots of booby traps
And man's undying persistence

A place where women cannot enter
I'm talking about their wives
A secret knock will open the door
To a land of beer and high fives

So if your husbands disappear
Without even a kiss or a wave
He's only gone for once a year
To visit his secret Man Cave

LOL Some of us ladies love football too, Larry. I'd be pounding on the cave wall saying, "What's the score?" No men in my house so the Chick Cave is where I'll be watching the big game. Just hate to see football season end. Funny poem, Larry! Love, Carolyn

A good poem with descriptiveness and rhyming. However, your third verse can use some corrections. Here is how it should look with proper spelling and grammar: "This is a place so secret even the FBI doesn't know of its existence. It's guarded by lots of booby traps and man's undying persistence" Your presentation will look much better with the suggested changes.
