School Spirit

 

Spirit seems a wispy thing

not solid like a brick,

It’s gone with just

the slightest breeze

or when the light goes “click”

It isn’t made

from anything

yet power sure increases,

when adding up

and plugging in

the sum of all its pieces.

Scarlet Knights

for running backs –

Spartans hold the line,

Badgers never stand

a chance –

With yardage

hard to find.

Golden Gophers

digging in –

Hawkeyes soon attack -

Wildcats and Buckeyes

get a Nickelback,

Cornhuskers & Hoosiers

make offensive guards –

The center snaps

Just like a twig

When landed on

by lard,

Wide receiver Terrapins

go long

then cut around –

Wolverines run straight ahead

then predictably fall down,

Illini keeps on fighting

there’s a flag

upon the play

Boilermakers, everyone

the coach

is going to pay.
