No Golf Today Angry clouds harangue the sky, Pass before my searching eye. Wet cement of raindrop grey, Not a chance of golf today. Perhaps I'll read, watch T.V. Call some friend or have some tea. It is that, or back to sleep And I don't like counting sheep. It's late I could wake my spouse, "God forbid," we'd clean the house. I guess I'll just lounge my chair and Rest my feet on the footstool there. I'll read to surcease the sorrow And hope for sunshine tomorrow. |

What an incredibly sad poem! I can relate so well! This is very well written, Sy. Good rhyme, good flow, good job. [This message has been edited by Balladeer (edited 08-25-99).] |

Ya know you guys... you want to hear about a die-hard golfer (or pair rather)...my ex husband and uncle one day went to play golf, in the winter (mind you, they live in Oregon) POURING down rain! About two hours later they returned soaked...the reason they quit early?? Lightning struck not 50 yards away from them. Bunch 'o crazies!!!  ------------------ "Grief can take care of itself, but to get the full value of joy you must have somebody to divide it with." *Mark Twain* |

Balladeer, A good from you is incredible to me. Christopher, Didn't mean to make you cry. Satiate, I can relate to what you said Golfers are real crazy. Thank you all for the read and comments. |
