BLAME KANE
King Coman didn't win the League title,
Having lost, to Leverkusen, the battle.
Coman, for the ?????????? time in his career,
Aged 27, welcomed Kane who's a trophy barrier.4
Blame Harry Kane.
The trophy-thirsty hierarchy looks on with disdain.
The Spurs' cursed man came with one aim,
Bayern's bundesliga run became so lame,8
Leverkusen flogged 'em with cane,
Now....no trophy rain,
Kane tainted Coman's record with a stain.
2013 to '23, Coman's luck was never in vain¹²
Until 2024 when trophy gain turns to pain.
Now, the dice is casted & reality becomes plain,
Blame Harry Kane!¹5

Abby comes from Largs in Scotland,
And is visually impaired by Stargardt,
The progressive vision disease panned,
By some of the other Paralympians.
Born on the 4th day of August 2003,
She’s a student at Largs Academy,
She trains hard in the backstroke,
At N. Ayrshire Amateur Swim Club.
So because she’s only thirteen,
Rio was her first Paralympic games,
But for the backstroke 100m S13,
She took silver in a time of 1:09.09.
When she was very young her family,
Holidayed in Australia, and, sad,
That she couldn’t swim, like the rest,
She learnt afterwards with desire.
Rich farmer had such a sweet son
Teig O'Kane was handsome lad's name
Seems like his work was never done
Loved splendid girls and sporting game.
Father O'Kane himself never did know
How much his son had gambled away
And as he started sinking far below
Debt became big growing night and day.
Teig started making love to a girl
And had heard that her purity he broke
While his father's wrath would unfurl
Teig told to himself another joke.
Down a long road he started to tramp
Then many little people he just saw
Carryin corpse which was still damp
Teig on his shoulder felt an icy paw.
Collapsed corpse clamped on Teig real tight
And said, "My friend bury me you must
In Orus or Dimus this very night
Or in or near Fada or Breedya's dust.
Teig went to these places each and all
In Breedya he found a formed grave
Deep into it the dead corpse did fall
Completely covered body with long stave.
Teig rested and quickly home he ran
Next week happily married now was he
Was free from debt and a changed man
And all his many sins no longer would be.

Red wellies and no pants!
you were such a funny child
hard to keep you safe from harm
as you were running wild
An easier kid there could not be
your childhood felt just fine
an adult's what you thought you were
when you were only nine
you always ran before you walked
an urge to grow up fast
your teacher's said you answered them
before the questions asked
now of you go ,the army life
I'm proud as I can be
I love you more than words can say
until eternity.
