The key to most sports: strong hands.
Golf, bowling, basketball, and baseball
Sports in which our talents may stall,
Showcase strong hands for lasting rescues –
And their greatest achievement: responding to cues.

Speed, distance, and length will be solved
As long as strength in our hands are involved.
Bend them, or turn them, or straighten them,
Oh, to be relaxed and quiet during mayhem.

Giving one’s best is ever so good,
And in our hands these concepts are understood.
Rewarding our strong hands is the best vital sign –
As they reward us with a cold beer or a fine glass of wine!
