Short Sports Fan Poems

Endings, 
Unwrap these
Crimsons. 

Leaves falling
Soon and I am 
Not the Catcher. 

But you, you
Sports Fan, 
Like the 
Lover chases
His tail, now. 

I do. 

And I pray....

There’s no nut torrid like a sports fan
He wants to see feats not known to man
Watching from his hot seat
While goliaths compete
For the top, the best since time began

Fully standard man
Come straight out the can
Right into the pan 
According to plan 

Sports fan
Sensible sedan 
Don't ask how it began 
Sleepwalking man 

In some kind of jam
Wonder where I am 
Think it all a big scam 
Malfunctioning man

Invented in the 1890's 
A sport I played as a youth 
    Now I've got 
the
Brooklyn Nets on T.V. 
   Can one be a poet and a sports fan?
The answer of course is yes!
   There have been many terrific poems 
written about athletes
City dreams are hoop dreams 
CITY DREAMS ARE HOOP DREAMS
   Maybe at 63 
I can still dribble and make a basket
   Die on the basketball court!
   Not a bad way to go!...

I am 
a believer in the gospel of Jesus Christ
a redeemed child of The King
an enthusiast of end time prophecies
a patriotic Bahamian
a lover of Rake and Scrape, Junkanoo, Goombay and Calypso
a September baby
a beach lover
an ocean lover
a nature addict
an environmentalist
a lover of coconuts
a tour guide
a time traveler
a sports fan
a poetess
a storyteller
a nature photographer
a comedian
an innovator
a philosopher
an artistic genius
and a tourism enthusiast...
