LAND OF WARM SURPRISES

I love watching football,
seeing Mexican
waves in hot countries.

Everyone is so excited
having long licks of
fun when the sun shines.

But here I am
standing in goal
sinking into the pitch!

I'm dreading someone shooting,
soaking me
in sticky mud.

There's nowhere I can hide!
I want a transfer
to the land of warm surprises.
