Today our poet laureate, Chris Wynne, offers the following:
Pride comes before a fall
A poem by Chris Wynne

The fairways were still frosty and covered with dew,
When I smashed a 3-wood, long, straight and true.
I knew I had hit it with all my might,
And I watched it soar through the air, towards the flag, nearly out of sight.
But when I searched all over the green,
That little white ball was nowhere to be seen.

I looked all over, down and up,
And would you believe it, it was there in the cup!
Imagine my joy and thrill at this feat,
Even my partners joined in the laughter as I turned up the heat.
But as they say: ˋPride comes before a fall´.
I found I had hit …..someone else‘s bloody ball!
