Polar Bowling
From the book The Tighty-Whitey Spider
It used to be that polar bears went bowling,
just for grins,
with snowballs for their bowling balls
and penguins as the pins.
The bears would have a blast
with all the snowballs that they threw.
The penguins weren't as happy;
that's the only time they flew.
So penguins all moved south
and now they're at the other pole.
Well, wouldn't you move far away
if bears used you to bowl?
--Kenn Nesbitt

Bowling
I approach the line
The ball is rolled
Everyone is silent
As I turn away,
the crowd is on their feet
It seems like forever
before the ball get's to the end
As it hit down all the pins;
the crowd is cheering
I am worried I might not get a strike
The audience yells strike
So glad
it’s the first strike of the game
wait,
What was that?
What did you say?
It's only practice?
