The One Best Tip – Golf Poetry

Marilyn Monroe taking a golf lesson
THE ONE BEST TIP 

HERE is the science and sum of it all —
Keep your eye on the ball!
Through fair green or hazard or grass that is tall —
Keep your eye on the ball!

No matter the distance, how short or how far,
No matter your game, be you duffer or star.
There is only one way you can hole out in par —
Keep your eye on the ball!

Over the course comes the clarion call —
Keep your eye on the ball!
One little turn and you're in for a fall —
Keep your eye on the ball!

Whether its golf or the game we call Life,
Down the Long Course where the tumult is rife,
Over the hazards and bunkers of strife —
Keep your eye on the ball!

Anonymous, from Lyrics of the Links, published in 1920
