Alphabe-Thursday: The Letter J

Jenny Matlock


A Jug of wine and a Jigger of gin
Consoling the Joyless Jayhawk within.
For like Goliath, the mighty did fall,
Jilted and cast from March Madness' Ball.

That was really a good game. Sorry, for you, they lost. I think it messed up everyone's brackets too.

I live between Jayhawk land and Tiger territory, I hear about the rivalry all the live long day.

Jealous Jim is jumping for joy for your meme.

My hubby watches March Madness...I don't even know who's mascot that is. But you Alphabet Thursday is clever as always.

Liz Mays said...

I don't even follow March Madness so I didn't even know who was playing. But I'm sorry that your team lost!

Kat said...

Sorry for your Jayhawks. My daughter attends a Sun Belt Conference school, so we never have to worry about having our hearts broken in the final 16 lol. Kathy

Betty said...

I guess they lost...huh? I don't follow all the March Madness games. Sorry your Jayhawks lost.

Jenny said...

I know nothing of sports so I'm guessing this is something not good.

Ummm.... is it appropriate to say...I'm sorry?

Great contribution to the J day links!

Even though I'm in the dark on this subject!

A+

Amanda Lee said...

Tee hee hee. I don't even follow sports, but your poem makes me giggle. Glad you're taking it all in stride.

Nadeen said...

It sucks when your team loses. So sorry. But that little U down the road also with a "K" is doing fine so give them a cheer. (Sorry, a K State fan all the way from Montana.)

Steph said...

I'm sad you're sad. But your poem and great.
