A Hell Of A Game

  A Hell Of A Game
Picture Credits:

'Pushing up daisies' is where I now am,
Slipped on the ice and I fell on my 'can',
Drove a Zamboni for each hockey game,
Now that I'm dead, it will not be the same.

Ice will not form here; it's hotter than hell,
Stuck in this place and it's here I will dwell,
Dreaming of hockey and thinking of ice,
Just one more face-off would really be nice.

Eating a hotdog and drinking a beer,
Watching my team as they score while I cheer,
"Wayne makes a shot and the crowd is going wild!",
I have loved hockey since I was a child.

Now it is over and here I am, dead,
Death without hockey is something I dread,
Dying don't scare me, ain't nothing to fear,
Wish we had hockey; we'd play it down here.

They'd be "The Devils" and we'd be "The Saints",
Skating on brimstone, our only complaint,
Trying for body-checks, going berserk,
We're only spirits and it will not work.

So I just lie here with nothing to do,
Dreaming of hockey and feeling so blue,
Eternity waits, bidding hockey farewell,
This is not Heaven; it's hockey-fans' Hell.

This is very cleverly done. The rhymes are very nicely done. It’s no secret that I do not like rhymes, but this rhyming pattern is very well done and it works! I think this is humorous and very entertaining. I don’t like hockey, but I could empathize with you, for when baseball season is over, I feel as if I have lost a dear friend. I really like this one David, it is full of great imagery!

As usual you humour makes me smile, gets my day off to a good start.
If I substitute golf I also would be sad.
Hell, If there is one, would be boredom followed by more of the same.
My personal hell would be the best set of clubs money could buy, only to find no courses or golf balls.

David, you're in a 'league' of your own..
get it? get it? Lol...
You never cease to amaze me with the subjects you write about.
Well done!
Debbie
Are you writing your entry for my contest? (big grin)(wink)

Pretty funny, I can picture someone just sitting, mopping about the desire to play.
