Best Sportsred Poems


Sweet!

...inspired by the 2004 World Series


Never saying die, their courage sorely tested,
they fought so valiantly to win one more;
seemingly defeated, they always battled back
then Damon put the Yankees on the floor.

With scarcely any time to blink or even catch their breath,
the Beantown boys were destined for St. Lou
to play a franchise known for their ability
to win by stealing bases on you too.

It was never even close to being a contest,
pitching and hitting made the Red Birds crawl;
from Foulke to Millar for the final killing, 
the Red Sox are the champions of them all!

Oh Yeah!

Oh yeah
I'm the kid in the red shoes
Mhmmm
I'm the fire foot kid

The kid that you better watch out for
The kid every coach wants
Oh yeah
I'm the kid in the red shoes

I fly by and hear,
"Someone mark the kid in the red shoes!"
I smile discreetly to myself
And push a little harder

Oh yeah
I'm the kid in the red shoes
In track and soccer
There's just no stopping me

I travel near and far
But no matter where you are
You can be sure you'll loose
Oh yeah
I'm the kid in the red shoes!
