Fantasy Football

Saluting sports, specifically football and boxing, fans with children being the main audience.

FANTASY FOOTBALL!!

Football!! Football!! It’s time to play a game!!

Which team will I be in now?

Oh Barca,what a name!!

 

Liverpool or Juve; Bayern; PSG

Who will be the champions?!

Like Muhammad ‘Champ’ Ali?!

Throw combinations so fast

The goal’s already scored

Before I do my dancing

Classmates already roared!! GOOOAAALL!! J

Author's Note

Muhammad Ali is my ultimate sporting hero for many reasons. That I could mention him in the midst of a poem designed for lovers of football, particularly primary school/secondary school children, was a pleasure. Champions span ages, irrespective of health. Ali, take care. We respect and love you for being you...Zlatan, Lionel, Ronaldo salute too...
