- Dad's Sparky Poem ...


- For Anyone That Does Follow My Blog, You'll Know That My Entries Are Anything But Regular, This One Is Extremely Special As It's My Father's Writing, From The Sketch Pad That Just Keeps On Giving; I Bring You A Poem, By Reg Gaudette, circ. 1984


He said in five years he'd do it,
And then, he set out to prove it.
He got out his geigers,
found gold in them 'dar tigers
Sparky, we just knew, you knew it.

The Blue Jays got hot here and there,
But we cooled them with guys like
Doug Bair,

Along with Aurelio, and Willie,
We stopped them silly,
And any other team that would dare.

Sparky, (formally a Red),
Came to Detroit with his bed.
"Give me 5 years to do it",
He then set out to prove it,
And gave us a crown like he said.

At the risk of sounding humble,
Zoologists have made a fumble,
Elephants are purely scary,
Lions; an adversary,
But Tigers are Lords of the jungle.
