What are your favorite sports to watch and play?

Once I kept goal for soccer quite by chance.

Without sports apparel I wore long pants.

Could not believe bless my soul

I dived and saved more than one goal.

When teacher training and in PE,

‘Twas Aussie Rules I had to play,

Sneaking forward I grabbed the ball,

And kicked four majors- what a haul.

Cricket was my number one,

Played for years ‘neath burning sun,

They used to say of Henry Gray,

That fielding was his real forte.

These days I’m old and full of years,

To run and jump would pain, bring tears,

I sit and watch the games on TV,

Appreciating players replacing me.
