Monday afternoon sonnet

Submitted by Baldbill on
Ok after writing the Haiku this morning, BlockM challenged me to write a sonnet, so durning my lunch time I looked to Shakespeare and a couple of his sonnets and hope I have done it correctly or mostly so. So here it is. When time was done Eastern had not prevail’d The Wolverines had won on this fine day, Thy Eagles fought bravely but they failed, Denard and running backs thy defense ruin’d: Bruised and aching but not diminished, When knocking our Forcier to the ground, He had enough to stay for the finish, Proving Barwis conditioning helps win. Summing up the time clocks count a big shock, Thy team has doubly held the ball this game, Thine team did have a former coach in stock, Tis not enough to be from Michigan. Hoosier defense will try next to stop us, Hail to the Victors Hail to Rodriguez.

When Michigan lined up to run the ball My heart began to pound inside my chest The tension which at first was very small Built quickly like a wave about to crest The clock slowed down and time began to crawl As Michigan prepared to take the test The ball was snapped, the crowd was standing tall What happened next I never would have guessed The lineman moved to find a man to block Tate took the ball and handed off to brown He cut it up, the crowd began to roar As carlos burst through the seam with the rock Our stress relieved, we raised a joyous sound Eleven seconds later he would score
