Cartwheels by the Goal Post

Cartwheels by the Goal Post

When the ball won't come

And you're bored as a goalie,

Try some cartwheels.

Good Grief! Holy Moly!

People will laugh.

People will scream.

Look at her now.

She's eating ice cream.

Could it be true?

Does her coach even care?

She took out a brush.

She's combing her hair.

It doesn't much matter.

She's having some fun.

She put on sunglasses.

She might have to run.

She's checking her watch.

She's blowing her nose.

She really should focus

And be on her toes.

Wait just a second!

The ball came her way.

You won't believe it!

She blocked a play.

Her team is ecstatic!

They're on cloud nine.

They won the game.

This goalie can shine!

So if a goalie does cartwheels,

And wants to play,

Just give her a chance.

She might save the day!
