Coffee and Soccer

So I'm sitting here this beautiful Sunday afternoon with a BIG mug of coffee flicking between two soccer games, Manchester United vs Stoke and Chelsea vs Wigan. I am hoping that some how Wigan beats Chelsea and Manchester United beats Stoke to win the premiership....but I know the chances are slim.
I know in just under an hour I'll be frustrated cause Chelsea will probably win and win the premiership and there isn't much I will be able to do about it from here.

But, this is not the reason for my blog. I'm writing this blog for my friend Hanna, who was the one who brought it to my attention last week that I had not written a blog in a long time (that was before I wrote the Faith one)....so I asked her what I should write on, and she suggested coffee.

So Hanna my friend, as I sit here flicking between the soccer, knowing that your team will probably win, here is a coffee and Soccer poem/blog just for you!

COFFEE AND SOCCER
There is this wonderful thing call coffee,
Some people like it as much as toffee.
It’s a wonderful thing to start out your day,
It can make your day sunny if it started off grey.

Perhaps not every one will agree with me,
I know lots of people prefer drinking tea.
But each person has their own favorite drink,
For me it is coffee cause it makes me think.

If you noticed at the start of this blog,
I’m sorry I did forget to mention I’m sitting with my dog,
I did however mention that I have this big mug,
That’s now half empty of my type of “drug”.

I think perhaps its time to refill my drink,
Cause as you can see it is making me think.
Yes I know that perhaps this poem is a bit lame,
But it’s hard to write when you’re watching two game.

The chances now of my team winning,
At this point in time is greatly thinning.
Two goals up are Chelsea at this time,
I somehow wish they could be covered in slime.

I’ve jumped up and down as my team scores again,
One of my dream has happened, here let me explain.
I had wished for my soccer hero to score here today,
Ryan Giggs is a legend, that’s all I can say!

Half time whistle has been blown,
And my mug is now dry to the bone.
Time to fill it up for the next half,
I hope that there was at least one line to make you laugh.


So there you have it, a lame poem written in just over 45 minutes while watching the soccer. No matter the outcome of these two games, I am a proud Manchester United fan and Ryan Giggs is a legend!!! (hee hee)

GO RYAN GIGGS!!!!!!! (hee hee)

::: Jacky breaks out singing Glory glory Man United since its halftime :::

p.s. Cant wait to get my Giggs shirt!!
