In honor of the World Cup final this weekend (and for Poetry Friday)...
GOAL!
by
Gregory K.
Goal!
Goal!
I scored a goal.
Oh, what a perfect day.
I kicked the ball so hard and true.
Oh, what a perfect play.
Boo?
Boo?
Why would you boo?
This always was my dream:
I shot it past the goalie and...
Oh, he’s on my team.

Hes been reciting it all night, practicing for being 'poet of the week' in his class- hes made a poster of it *of course keeping your name as auther, added a picture and has to recite it to the class! Hes already got it memorized and laughs to himself every single time! Thanks!

Dear Gregory K.,
I am doing a project for school and I need information such as why did you write this poem, where you are from, and what inspired you to write this poem and such. If you could tell me this information it would be very useful ASAP.
Thank You,
Michael D., 11
Hi, Michael - I wrote this poem from a childhood memory (though it wasn't me who kicked the ball into my own goal!). And I wrote it because it seemed funny, too. (Oh... and I'm now from Los Angeles, CA).
