LET THE FAT LADY SING BEFORE YOU CELEBRATE

By Dan Donlan, www.PoetryPoem.com/dandy1    Unlock all Features - Upgrade to Poetry Prime

Everyone has heard not to celebrate until
The fat lady has finished singing
But at the State hockey championships
This team celebrated the victory before
the National Anthem was played
Boys posted on their face book
We are State champions going to Nationals
Mom and Dad booked the rooms and flights
After the first goal taunted the opposing team
Sticks raised in the air in victory
That was the last goal they scored in two overtimes
Late in the second overtime a team was throwing
Sticks and elbow pads in celebration
Mom and Dads were booking flights to the Nationals
Number two were throwing second place trophies
For bad sports against the boards
