Football Season's Here

Football Season's Here
(Sculptured Verse)






Football season's here.
Can't wait to shout and cheer!
The MN. Vikings will finally take to the field.
All their starters ready to have for their future revealed,
In a very tough division, where you find no team's fate is sealed.
I'm anxious to put on purple paint to watch my favorite players play.
I will be watching on television or at the game stadium on Football Sunday,
While I root for a rout of each opponent, or, if not, then at least for a close win.
I'll tell you, it is very hard to hold it all in. I'm anxious and ready for each game to begin.
After practices, scrimmages, and the pre-season blows, all surviving players are ready to go.
Fill up the stands. The place is jumping. Fan's heartbeats are thumping. Get on with this show!
><><><><><><><><><><><><><><
No matter the venue. Don't care if it's road game or home game, all the same, fans just want a win.
Toss that coin, select the field, play the National Anthem. Then line them up. Let the game begin.
Watch the starting kickoff as the ball sails aloft. Relish the mayhem; whistle, yell and scoff.
Just can't wait to see Adrian Peterson run with the ball, when that guy gets the call,
On Defense, when Jared Allen makes the opposing Quarterbacks take a big fall.
Ponder to Greg Jennings, Jerome Simpson, or Joe Webb, would be sweet.
Even some Blair Walsh field goals would get fans off their feet.
With Twenty Eight up the middle or Seven goes deep;
These are the memories that will certainly keep.
Hoping Chad Greenway snags one too!
Purple turns other team blue.

Go Vikes!
Show Purple Pride!
Shout, cheer, let out a Skol,
Take us fans to the Superbowl!

ARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL!!!!
