The match has begun, the score ‘tis set
Thirty-fifteen and the orb’s in your quad
Ace-service-ace, caught unaware
Like bovine glances at the new way in

Respond in kind as soon as you dare
Be original in your finite square

For the match is soon over
The leap of net will soon transpire
It’s forty serving ten and five
And I’m one up more than I was up before.

LOL!  Good luck with the responses.  It's been so long since I've played, I can't remember the rules.  I'm waiting, however, for a title to appear which says, "Love In; Love Out."   Enjoyed this!   ...jo
