The Golf Prayer II

Never Hurts but Helps to have a Prayer Ready!

 

My yearning proclaims the greatness of the game

my spirit rejoices in the fundamentals of golf...

Frankly I sought pleasure and no one else to blame

 

From this day forward I know all begins with the grip

no glamour or fame for this part of the swing

a chain reaction in physics that can easily slip

 

Next I understand is the stance and posture

where everything takes place

perfect balance and poise, all assignments so true

the difference is style and grace

 

Moving on, I am told

the first part of the swing

so old

backswing, shoulders, arms, perfectly poised

now you’re singing!

 

The second part of the swing

connecting the ball flush and sweet

hips turned and power released by a king

follow-through so sleek

 

The putting I’ll save for part three

go out there man

Just Do it with a glee

and a prayer

it’s all part of the plan...

I can't golf - have better luck picking up the ball and winging it - that's not allowed, is it? LOL Still, doesn't hurt to pray - especially at golf - well done, Myles.

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.

Sometimes, when considering the game of golf, many prayers are needed. My Dad always tells stories of how he would become so frustrated that he'd wrap the club around a tree. That is an expensive bit of frustration!

I enjoyed this. Thanks,

Jill
