The Day I Took Up Bowling

by Peter Hudspith

The day I took up bowling,

I wasn't sure what to do.

Now many years later, I still

don't have much clue

But along the way I've had some fun, and met some funny folk, 

which takes away the pressure when you have a laugh and joke.

We chat about the weather, which sometimes is not good.

Then you get a nudge, to say it's time to bowl your wood.

Line  length, luck and learn are the things you pick up, when you play  the game..

But more often than not your bowl won't finish where you aim.
