The Very First Poem
posted Jun 18, 2009
The season is over, the summer begins,
And all of us gooners argue all sorts of things,
"Who's past his prime" and "Who's the star of tomorrow",
"Who will we get?" "Nah, not him!" "Who will sign?" "Who will go?",
We've signed some more kids and Wengers excited,
Because he's just dropped off Silvestre back at United,
Fans get impatient as the weeks roll by,
No new names on the books at the end of July,
Crafty Vermaelen escaped Arsene's net,
Melo's in hiding so no big names yet,
The lack of a signing is grating on nerves,
Hold on a second! Look what we've got in reserve,
We boast Cesc and Toure, Ade, Van Persie,
Eduardo, Rosicky, Arshavin and Nasri,
Why follow the Gunners? See above for the reason,
But Oh No! It's gone wrong at the start of the season,
Everton are 5 up with 10 minutes to go,
But wait! Eboue's come on and is stealing the show,
He's knocked David Moyes and his poor toffees for 10,
He's done it before and he'll do it again,
Doing step overs and spins, shot after shot,
Dribbling and scoring, this boy's got the lot,
So watch out world, the Quadruple is ours,
'Cause we've got Eboue and his super powers
