[hometext] => A sure win
[bodytext] => If I could climb a mountain high, T'would make of me a lofty I, Then all the people down below Would watch me climb up in the snow. If I could drive a Spalding 'pill' Up and down a grassy hill, The folks who stand behind the ropes Can shout and yell upon the slopes. If I could smash a tennis ball That landed fair when it does fall, The buffs who come into the stand Can yell and howl to beat the band. If I could run a racing car So fast I'd be in front by far, The crowd would cheer, "Hurrah, Hurrah", I'm a hero, La-dee-da. If I could swim a river wide, And get me to the other side, The folks who stand and watch the feat Can cheer their hero in the meet. If I could find a gloreous thing, And give to her a diamond ring, My friends can rant and they can rave, But I know my soul she'll save. A mountain I can never clinb And lofty, I can only mime. A golf ball up and down a hill Would only make me very ill. A tennis ball whoever calls ad-out is where it always falls A racing car, I'm sure you know With me inside will never go. A river wide, half way across Is all I'd make, A sure thing loss. All things considered, I'm the king, It brought me love, this wedding ring. All the contests that I've lost, Are rather small in terms of cost, I'm glad to play the game of life A game between a man and wife. The way you play, you never lose, You play the rules of don'ts and dos. The crowd can rant and rave and bleat, The love we have, you cannot beat.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
