More Squash Poems

    Just try & be nice ...

     Squash is my way of life
     kindly don't take that as a joke
     cuz when someone asks for a let
     I humbly offer a stroke...

     I never play a carried ball,
     always call the double bounce,
     the questioning of referees' calls,
     such practices I strongly denounce...

     When I am ready to serve,
     I audibly announce the score,
     If there's a dispute in numbers,
     in their favor, I opt for more...

     No point in throwing ur racquet,
     think of it as a part of ur arm,
     now imagine if u will in anyway,
     ever deliberately bring it any harm?

     No gain being abusive verbally,
     try & respect your own name,
     u will win some & will lose some,
     in the end, it's all part of the game...

     I try to always get out of the way,
     to allow them a direct path,
     never happy getting bumped,
     hence suffering someone's wrath...

     No matter if they're better or worse,
     I always enjoy hitting with them all,
     because I know I can always outdo myself,
     as long as I keep my eyes on the ball...

     I can tell u loads about the game,
     but I'll leave u with this advice,
     always respect ur opponent & the game,
     to sum it up: "just try & be nice..."

Squash is War

 

  Guide to Playing Squash

  Always step on the court with ur A game,
  enjoy the sport with the right mind frame,
  strive to be much better than your last time,
  'cuz a win ain't a must & a loss ain't a crime...

  Hold ur racquet up high to help u disguise,
  but never overinduldge in your own surprise,
  'cuz not every flick u play will end up being a winner,
  so keep the margin of error from becoming thinner...

  Defend each shot like u defend ur pride,
  and soon ur opponent will break his stride,
  relish the feeling of being under pressure,
  & u will end up emerging so much fresher...

  When playing with someone much better,
  don't try & become a new trend-setter,
  by 'tin'ning every ball u wanted to kill,
  try to play steady & respect their skill...


  While playing with someone of equal skill,
  it's time to put to use, each & every drill,
  to yourself u have to always demonstrate,
  that u can win this if u really concentrate...

  Playing someone lower, keep this in mind,
  help them enjoy the game & try to be kind,
  this is a chance to polish ur own technique,
  & also better urself with some healthy critique...

  Practice persistently to better each & every shot,
  so u can successfully devise ur next battle's plot,
  notice how far ur shots stay up, how deep they land,
  & then unveil the strategy with the weapon in ur hand...

  Train your body to endure brutally hard matches,
  so u will be consistent, not just strong in patches,
  thus u can always avoid a complete white wash,
  don't play squash to get fit, get fit to play squash...
