With a figure that makes people gape

Haggle Over Being Agile and Fragile
Haggle Over Being Agile and Fragile

What we all  had to do was haggle,
Over knowing Athlete is quite agile;
With much tedium,
Find happy medium,
Along with parts that may be fragile.

Horse
White, black and brown serving our town
An international khiladi and royal animal
A symbol of courage, status and hospitality
An athlete and a good companion for journey
May you live to be a hundred....

Bike Ride
Bike ride,
air through my hair,
sunshine dousing my skin.
Dirt and splashed mud cover wheels.
Sweat drips
heat rises, thigh to palm to cheek.
Music comes from nature,
leaf and rock crunch
below tire....

Perfect Body and Safe Soul
If you are already an athlete,
              so you are concerned with your body...
              be a poet too ...!
              Exercise poetry ...
              Not for the body,
              but for the  safe of your soul ...!...

ATHLETE
The sun is shining onto our universe of athlete
We are what we do and who we meet
Don't you remember about what is obsolete
Let's burn all of our energy to the last game to compete

Gay Equality
Homophobia will
be over, when "coming out"
is not reported.

[Why do Entertainment mags always have stories when a person, especially an actor or athlete, comes out? Because we are still a long way from it not being gist for the news cycle, I suppose.]...

like a river the thought of you flows through my head....

like a mental to a magnet am attracted to you .....

Egg and Spoon
There was once a young athlete called Grace,
    Who was leading the egg and spoon race.
    But her egg had a flaw,
    And it also was raw.
    Now she came last, with egg on her face.

Bouquet For You
To gift my bouquet for you,
Pain blew me as the whistle blew;
You, a crying bride, measure my steps,
I, not an athlete, step-up;
I run, pulled by your love,
Reach; thrust my gift, somehow...!
