ODE TO THE AFL

ODE TO THE AFL

A Poem by Julie Grenness
"

A tribute to Melbourne, Australia. We have a unique whimsy, AFL football. (and we wouldn't have it any other way!)

"

ODE TO THE AFL!


Are footy fanatics,

Total raving lunatics?

The flag's in the bag!

We've got lively lads,'

The best we've ever had!

Peter Pans on pot,

The flags that time forgot!

Footy finals fever,

Talk about dream weavers!

Footy finals phobias,

TV claustrophobia,

Why didn't we win?

Any old excuse again!

Footy fanatics,

Raving lunatics,

Footy finals fever,

Melbourne's dream weavers.
