Comment from jmdg1954
I rarely write poetry and if I do, it must rhyme. This is a new style for me. The Clerihew: a short rhyming poem written of two couplets.
It looks to me you shot the puck and scored with this one. Red light and sirens blaring.
Best of luck in the contest,
John

Comment from ExperiencingLiphe
I guess it's a price you have to pay when you do a sport like that. There are always those legends in sports that we admire. We do football and I hear about all the great ones, the ones that played before I was born, but they're the best of the best that my dad remembers. It's fun.

ExperiencingLiphe: You are spot-on about paying dues when you
elect to put yourself out there for fame and glory. Glad you and you dad can share this one. teafor2
Comment from royowen
Games like ice hockey, although it's played here, more in special ice arenas. But our temps are never really cold in winter. But Bobby Hull is injured and I can understand that, It's a great post, well done, blessings Roy

Lisasview: I am glad this bit of levity introduced you to another form of our tenuous art. Not all celebrities names/careers make them good
candidates for this form of fun, but when the two do come together smiles abound:) Thanks for your gracious response/rating. teafor2

Very Funny poetic writing about the hockey player who lost his front teeth.

QC Poet: Thanks for stopping by. I love this particular form, but not
all celebrities and or their names lend themselves to this type of fun
poking:) I am currently working on another one. It's proving to be a
bit more difficult than I anticipated. I'm grateful for your response...
Your personal sentiments and rating are greatly appreciated. teafor2

Comment from jim vecchio
Are you sure you didn't make that poetic form up, as I once did the Vecchioelle? Anyhow, that was quite clever and I loved the final line that made the whole poem come alive, though it probably didn't lift Bobby Hull's spirit!

Jim: Believe it or not, this is a recognized form. Bobby Hull just
happens to have one of those names, careers and missing body
parts that can elicit 'gentle' fun. Thanks for the read, comments and stars:) teafor2

I don't have one of those names or careers, so I invented my own in the short story "Breaking Up Is Easy To Do."

I'll have to check it out. teafor2

Remember, it's all fiction (though I did know a girl named Rusty).
Comment from Brenda Strauser
I enjoyed reading this poem. Both my husband and 2 sons played hockey for awhile. It was enjoyable to watch them. Your poem is written well. I like the picture. Goes well with the poem. Very good job

Brenda: I hope you don't mind my taking liberties by using your
first name? Thanks for your personal remarks, gracious comments
and super rating. The picture does go well with the narrative, it was
borrowed from the Fanart section. teafor2
Comment from XinaD
This was fun. As a Canadian, I of course love hockey and this came off as a fun little ditty that I could see kids chanting around the rink. Quite a task with such restricting parameters. Well done!
