Tennis poetry

There once was a great player named Tom

who hit every shot like a bomb

the forehand was a Grenade

and needed no aid

The backhand was nuclear

and always particular

The volleys shot like an arrow

and stung like it, hit your bone marrow

But his smash was the stash

and you wouldn't want its lash

So let's hear it for Chadwick

the man  who's game is so madwick!

Notes

Madwick in Tunisia means powerful and thunderous or so I am told.

And also please note its a balmy minus whatever but we don't get any sunburn or do we need expensive sunscreen.

Looking forward to seeing Tom's thunderous and powerful shots maybe it will warm things up here!

Credit goes to Terry T.
