I have been watching the World Cup and loving it. I love the Bafana Bafana, the Jabalani and the Vuvuzalo's. I love watching the African teams - the noise, the fans, the colours and the craziness of it all!!!I watched the first England match against the USA and wrote this poem.
Who'd Be A Goalie
Who'd be a goalie
guarding the nets
a hero one minute
a villain the next
When you save free kicks
and penalties
everybody thinks
you're the bees knees
Jumping for crosses
brave and strong
you can't seem to do
anything wrong
But when you let
in a goal people moan
leave you standing
on your own
standing there
with your head in your gloves
you're suddenly the player
nobody loves.
That one is for Robert Green, England Goalie, because we all make mistakes but that's OK, that's why pencils have rubbers on the top!!!
