Toast A Collingwood poem I wrote

So I know a lot isn't going on, so I thought I'd share a Collingwood poem I wrote last year, I thought I'd share.

Collingwood, Oh Collingwood​


In the heart of Melbourne's bustling streets,
Lies a club where every footy fan meets.
Black and white, their colors fly,
A magpie's pride, soaring high.

Collingwood, oh Collingwood,
Where dreams are chased, and understood.
With every kick, mark, and handball,
The Magpies stand, united and tall.

From Victoria Park to the MCG,
Their history rich, for all to see.
Legends have graced the hallowed ground,
With roaring fans, their cheers resound.

They fight, they strive, with all their might,
Under the floodlights, every Friday night.
With every goal, the crowd's roar swells,
Echoing through the city, a story it tells.

So here's to the Magpies, black and white,
In their quest for glory, they take flight.
Collingwood, oh Collingwood,
Forever strong, forever good.

A poetry thread..... this is going to break a few stereotypes.

Another one dropped out in bed last night,
No teeth is driving me nuts,
I wish that I hadnt lost me mum's chompers,
They had a wonderful taste of old butts.

Stick to your day job, freedom fighter.

The kids really have ants in the pants today, so I'm going to take them to the playground.A: "Why is Carrie pacing?" B: "She's waiting for her doctor to call, so she's had ants in her pants all day."I always get ants in my pants before a test. I wonder if all acton get antsin their pants before they go onstage.This vivid metaphor no doubt has survived because of its rhyming character, just asalliteration enhanced its seventeenth-century forerunner, a breeze (gadfly) in one’s breech(es). Several twentieth-century writers are credited with popularizing the phrase; among them are George Kaufman and Moss Hart, in TheMan Who Came to Dinner (1939): “I’ll get the ants out of those moonlit pants.” The cliché also gave rise to the slangyadjective antsy, for restless or jumpy.
