MTZ Trophy Series

They spoke bold and brass
Each looking to dominate 
there respective segments
And respective time allowances
They knew the outcome
If one were to lose in this sanctioned 
Bout where the stability of the night
Would either be challenged
A series of loser leave town matches
Would have seven fans awarded a room and
Two meals at the courtsey of the loser. 
Two men enter a contest in seven different
Towns. Each man makes arrangements 
For a room and dinner and breakfast 
The signed match is then scheduled
A radio station or group of ( radio stations)
Conduct a fair and honest raffle. 
The winner gets the losers room
And two meals paid by the loser of
The best of seven series . 
"A Loser Leaves Town Match" one that
Will put the winner of the series as number
One contender. Look to your favorite radio and tv stations for details in all metropolitan regions.! 
This is one for the record books. Collab Productions presents....... A Loser Leaves Town Match coming
To your area!

The Game

THE GAME


Here's to the game 
of men and their ball.
The helmeted warriors 
of winter and fall.

Explode off the line
with a thunderous crack.
Bust through blockades,
and pushing them back
 
Cover the field, 
defend from attack.
Holding the line,
and making the sack.

Advancing position 
with power and speed.
Get slamed to the ground, 
got no time to bleed.

Flying down field 
at incredible paces, 
grab bombs from the air,
and off tips of shoe laces. 

Giving the order,
making the read,
the rarest of athletes,
a talent to lead.

Engaging attackers,
forging the hole,
protecting their leader,
the heart and the soul.

heat, snow, or rain,
blood, sweat, and tears, 
fighting through pain,
attack without fear.

For their city, the peolpe,
their brothers, their name.
Most important of all
for love of the game.
 
With prowess, and grit,
they give it their all,
for the ultimate honor,
enshrined in the hall.

katy l a shining girl

anthem salute swimming swirl

a thousand breathless reps

she mounts again top steps

nations pride nations pearl.

Vulture

Thousands of ants move in a line
like they're driving on a two lane highway
A vulture stares into the distance
while its talons clutch dead remains
It pecks here and there
the carcass jerks  
The animal may still have life
The vulture does not care
Shadows dance across the ground
More vultures are on their way
As they land they scan the area
They are not worried about feelings
They peck 
and peck 
The animal is beyond dead 
yet the vultures cackles grow louder
They have taken all the life from that animal
and still they want more.


Premium Member Competitive Parents

baby elephant wanted to play
the soccer coach could not figure out a way
the girls insisted, and so he backed down a bit
baby elephant would not release the ball
which means the competitive parents all had a fit
coach took flack all that fall

A day at the bowls

A perfect summers day with the sky turquoise blue
A faint breeze through the trees and pink flowers in bloom
Out on the green they are dressed in their best.
Bright team colours, we expect nothing less.
At the start of the game they gather and stay.
Til someone in charge shouts out “Let’s play”.
The grass is so dry the bowls speed down the green.
Looking out from the pavilion a classic summer scene.
The bowls clack together as they fight for the jack.
Each rink changes sides back and forth, forth and back.
The game draws to a close and it’s on a knife edge.
Our team steals the show with one point ahead.
It’s time for tea after a grand day of fun.
Some opt for a pint and a fresh saffron bun.

Premium Member A September Sun-Soaker

a September sun-soaker
strolling across parking lot
in baby blue slip-on Skechers
so comfy, floating on afternoon

wearing Bills T-shirt, G-O  B-I-L-L-S
still I’m not glued to the game
I’ll watch the recaps; must prioritize
reading, writing, studying, grooving

water my lantanas, hubby did
since we’re not seeing rain
perhaps the weather holds back
its tidings for a sudden snowfall

a nice lacy glisten, inches high
seeds planted in suspense, sea
of white waves and arctic air
dare we dream for fancy flakes

pumpkin patch, batting eyes
a little early, they morse code
orange is best and mellifluent leaves
kick that idea around and S-C-O-R-E

Premium Member Accounting for Pickleball

      It seems ‘Pickleball’ has swept the nation
      Folks play after work and on vacation

          Fav’rite pre-game drills
          Eating kosher dills

      Accounting for their in-FAT-u-a-tion

Pugilistic arts?
Or just a bloody fight?
