ODE TO WHISTLE

Oh Whistle,

You decide the fate of games.

Oh Whistle,

You help me when I feel ashamed.

Oh Whistle,

You’ve taught me how to be a man.

Oh Whistle,

Once your blown time has began.

Oh Whistle,

The bead inside you rattles around.

Oh Whistle,

Since you’re a king, you should be crowned.

Oh Whistle,

“Ace!” you yell with your loud voice.

Oh Whistle,

You’ve taught me to always make the right choice.

Oh Whistle,

You’ve always been by my side since day one.

Oh Whistle,

I am proud to call myself your son.
