Golf - the mystery of holes in the ground

smoothed to within an inch of its life

soft dreams

tiny ball hard hit

      that's about it

 

oh! I nearly forgot

the nineteenth hole

      scene of many a deal

done with sweaty hands

and in oak - lined rooms

where men can be men

 old sorties are relived

 

oh! and I nearly forgot

the fees,  a fine

for not staying at home

for the heart is where the head

tries to get round

those soft dreams of

tiny ball hard hit

      that's really about it

 

Oh! I nearly forgot

to mention the shop

now I promise to stop.
