Come one, come all, let's gather 'round
For a poem about fun and play, profound
With words like competitor and tournament, you'll see
That this is a poem about sports, just for thee

First, let's talk about division
That's how we separate teams with precision
Competitors play against each other
With great enthusiasm, like a sister or brother

We need equipment for every game
A ball, a bat, or maybe a frame
Each sport has its own unique gear
It's what helps the players, year after year

The tournament is where it all comes together
Players compete, no matter the weather
Organized games for all to see
Spectators gather, filled with glee

Sports are more than just a pastime
They teach us teamwork, and help us to climb
To new heights of success and fun
It's no wonder that we're always eager to run

So get scheduled for your next game
And don't forget why you came
To have fun and be part of a team
And compete with heart and scream!
