The Best Game You Can Name
Another ode to the great game of hockey
Visitor, welcome to Earth
Take this planet for what it's worth
It's the best place to go
And I should know
I've been on this planet since birth
* * *
There are many great sights to see
But the best one will fill you with glee
Our great claim to fame
The absolutely greatest game
The iconic sport of hockey
* * *
You will definitely enjoy the action
As you cheer for your favorite faction
There's chaos galore
As the teams try to score
It's the ultimate fast-paced attraction
* * *
So, visitor, enjoy the great game
And don't be afraid to exclaim
So until then
I say once again
Hockey is our greatest claim to fame

I'm a big sports fan, especially hockey, and I've been a fan of villainesses since I was eight! My favorite shows are The Simpsons and Family Guy, etc.

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."

This is super fun and energetic—a perfect ode to hockey and Earth’s charm!
Great poetry! I love hockey. The Wild and Bulldogs in MN. Local is the Grand Rapids Griffins, and Hibbing Blue Jackets. My son's adult team in the Twin Cities, MN. I used to watch college football in Bemidji, MN when the whole crowd would jump in when a fight would break out when I was a kid. Freaky!
Love the joy in this! Awesome! 🤍
Fabulous!!! Loved it!!!❤️❤️💕
Nicely done!
Love it!
