Captain Bad News Poem by Richard Wlodarski
Captain Bad News
Auston Matthews...
Captain Bad News
Never paid dues
Missing his cues
Strip him of C
Complacency
Prima donna
We don't wanna
There are all sorts of problems going on with our teams. Here in Canucksland our captain has just gone Wild. This verse should be part of our national heritage! I think, if it were to induct literature, even the hockey Hall of Fame should induct it.
Call me an optimist, but I think The Leafs are gonna turn it around! M.J., I am honoured by your remarks! Can't wait to share them with my brother who has a miniature Hockey Hall of Fame in our condo. My Leafs friends will also get a kick out of your remarks.
I haven't been following hockey lately, but this poem made me laugh! Thanks, Richard.
Laughter is always the best medicine! Look at how much it benefited Norman Cousins. And extended his life. Thanks for reading and commenting, Kim. Wishing you excellent health, much happiness and prosperity in The New Year!

2) There's also something very musical here. I was reminded of UNcle Albert reading the first feew lines. And that has given me an idea....Brilliant verse, Richard.
2) My friend, The Very Best Of Health, Much Happiness and Great Prosperity in The New Year!
I see the connection, my friend. Wonder if McCartney might be able to see the same? Excited about seeing your idea. Many Thanks for your support!
