Robert Pettit Poet Light Verse

To Play Tennis

You said you wanted to play tennis.
This is a great morning for playing.
It’s nice and warm and the sun is shining.
I bought a brand new racquet.
Now you say you’ve changed your mind.
Where are your balls?

A Rambling Righting Riley - Shauna Riley February 21, 2011 at 9:19 AM haha...love this and was a good chuckle to start off my day...my grandmother would refer to balls...as in the lack of brass ones...which would always crack me up, especially because it's coming from my grandmother....have a great day! ~Shauna~
