Make That Putt

Not just for golfers...if you know what I mean...

Make that putt

he yelled

from the

jalousie window           

above.

Make that putt .

I may have

given it

to you

but your

opponents

obviously

know you well.

You missed

a foot

going...

what makes

you think

you’ll make it

coming back.

Make that putt.

Don’t pick it up.

I haven’t

given it

to you.

Make that putt.

Earn the right

to pick

the ball up

on a gimme.

Does the rest

of your game

suck, too?

Make that

damn

putt, will you!!

'Make that damn putt, will you!!" better make it with all that commotion hahaha....It looks like you made it-good day on the green! I can't putt worth anything, when the pressure is on - but my pitch makes up for it. I thoroughly enjoyed that write gunslinger!

I wonder if the person behind the jalousie window was shouting it all or that voice in your head, well written!

Oh, I like your funny side very much. Golf is a lost concept to me but I felt closer to it while reading this. I might even try a round or two myself...although I doubt I could make that putt :)

This was a fun poem. Lil golf humor here, I know nothing about the game. But I do find myself putting along in life sometimes. lol
Great fun poem Allen

Great words and I like the photo. Sometime some motivation can be helpful and sometime could use some peace and quiet. Thank you for this fun poem to read. A excellent poem.
