Best Physical Education Poems

I’ll never forget what’s her name
A PE teacher and ogre she became
For I was such a sickly child
it really made this ogre wild
Held in my hand a medical certificate 
exempted from all things physical
with Rheumatic Fever and St Vitus’ Dance
for me to take part ~...

Working in physical education
Blond teacher had a realisation 
Spotting a young boy alone
Standing all on his own
Her curiosity, frustration 

Young man, why are you all on your own
To the others, why are you disowned
Well, I'm not the teams sweeper
I'm their bloody goalkeeper
Please Miss Coach, it's...

Oh, Please, Not Again

By Elton Camp

As a teenager, I admit I was a nerd.
Books to sports I very much preferred. 
To become agile, I didn’t have the means.

It's a real story that happened in one school

Have you ever wondered? 
Being in an adult blunder 
A reason for going to class 
Besides the well-known intellectual pass 
Is it to learn the alphabet?
Addition subtraction you may get
Going to the swing set for fun 
After morning school work is done 
Lessons get tougher...

You had a mom and dad that put a fire in your heart...
They provided love and encouragement from the very start.

Randy and Sandy are part of the crew...
And they always applaud everything that you do.

The apparent President-elect
and her closest advisers
gather to build a Cabinet
that might survive four years of dwindling hope.

Thanks so much for being here.
Let's begin with a time of silence,
gathering our listening voices and thoughts,
hopes and therapeutic vision....

As this time ends,
I'm wondering if someone might help me...

WD-40 resistant, cranky
     mental gears no longer appraised,
honored, nor prized
as a precision crafted tool
never adequately utilized,

     taking up space and
     time (sigh hence) during
during twelve...
