Was out roaming around the other day
When I had an idea for a poem, ok?
Writing it sounded like a lot of fun
So immediately I, back home run
That's exactly what the poem's about
The GOAT, who are they? To find out
Each of their names, I had to scramble
Let's start, I'm through with the preamble
He wore a uniform with number three
Babe Ruth = HR beau-t b
Make fun of him? You crazy? Wha??
Hank Aaron = A, rank on? Ha!
He don't cry, it's not his style
Willie Mays = Y wail? Smile!
Left him out, due to popular demand
Barry Bonds = Sorry, b band
Him and others, I avoids
If it's shown they took steroids
If it's true, it's such a shame
Take off their name from the Hall of Fame
Ok, now I'm through with my rant
Will I stay mad? No, I can't
I'm looking at the calendar, there's no way
Only a few weeks until Opening Day!
This was a fun read — the way
This was a fun read — the way you flipped each legend’s name into a rhyme shows real creativity. It captures the spirit of the game and the joy of writing.
