'That's My Son!' A Rugby Poem for Kids & Funny Mother Poem

I love a poetry writing prompt from The Toy Press. This week, the word of the week was #Sweet

I came up with a rugby poem for kids and combined it with a funny mother poem.

We love our mums but their boundless pride knows no limits and may lead to embarrassing situations that last a lifetime 😜

That’s My Son!

I could score a try

I could drive the scrum

I’d be great at rugby

if it wasn’t for my mum

Screeching full of pride

Screaming, That’s my son!

Shrieking from the side-lines

banging songs out on her drum:

Go on Sweetie Pie!

Go on Honey Bun!

Go on Boo-Boo Bear!

You can do it Sugar Plum!
