Short Competitors Poems

Trump and Rod

Trump and many others have trod
While they were in search of a rod
So with competitors could be beating
Instead of it being self-defeating
Prefers women who clothes off shod.

Recently, I ran in a race.
I’m glad to say I came in second place.
The other guy came in next to last.
I thought I was running just as fast
The truth is, there were only two competitors in the race.

Trump A Competitor Predator

Trump thinks his worst competitors
Are news reporters as well as editors
Media who will run around in masses
By believe latest person who passes
Actions are typical of people predators....

At my door are some trick-or-treat visitors

     Dear Lord, they are campaign solicitors

          The most hideous political competitors

I know that you are ready,
I know that you can win,
THe other kids cannot belive,
What awesome shape you're in,
Our training has been difficult,
But you have met the test,
You maybe just a rookie,
But you're out to beat the best,
Competitors are slowing now,
And many are conceding,
It's time they crowned the latest queen,
Of JV cheerleading!...

Down South In Water Did Wade

While down south in water would wade,
After on sandy beach played and played;
Some tea drank;
On hammock sank;
Looked up at cloudless sky when we laid.

Jim Horn

Seems like all days in a south summer
are lazy ones.

Do I have any competitors that about
southern life enraptures along with
all of the alligators....

Ollie, born 1997, plays for Chester football club, 
Having made his way through Chester juniors;
The club were delighted and chuffed for Ollie, 
To be going to Rio as one of the competitors. 

As the youngest person to play for England,
Ollie added much to the CP World Champs, 
In 2015 at St Georges Park, practice ground,
Because after this he was chosen with clamps....

What a way to bless me..!!
With all goodwill of thee.
Methinks thou are my Lord,
Of generations that chord.
On this auspicious day I,
Implore thee to let me vie.
With the competitors many,
Cunning, crafty and felony.
May you be my guide and,
I'm relieved and withstand.
The form of divinity true,
Thou are my Lord in to-to.
In distant places we dwell,
But the kinship rocks well..!...

There was bowling
Competition this early morn
All eight lanes were
In use, competitors worn

The games were tied
The competition tense
One lane after another
Were the pins all hit

Occasionally there would be a break
When the racker slacked at his job 
Then all pins would be hit
Really, really hard

Rocky being terrified by all the noise
Jumps into my lap wanting peace restored
No way can he understand
There are some things only God can control...

At the pool hall, the bathroom was closed.
Pipes were punctured, the plumber supposed;
But some pro had to go,
Thinking no one would know
If his flow didn’t have him exposed.

So he piddled but there were some clues,
For some drops hit competitors’ shoes.
Soon a sign on the wall
Was a warning to all – 
Players, please mind your pees and your cues!
