Rivalry on ice

Nicole Pritchard

On frozen ponds, where dreams collide

Maple leaves and stars, in friendly stride

Rival teams clash, with sticks and might

A test of skill, in hockey's delight 

 

From Vancouver's grit to Boston's cheer

Resect and sportsmanship shine clear

The puck drops hard, the crowd on their feet

Canada and the USA, in hockey's heat

 

Through every goal, every save, every fall

Our bond remains, standing tall

In hockey thrill, we find our pride

A friendship forged, side by side

 

So let's the games begin, the rivalry rage

With mutual respect, we'll turn the page

For in the end, it's not just about the win 

But the love of hockey, makes us kin

    A great poem of rivalry forged in friendship. So glad that hocky bonds us in that politics is a thorny bush that no Trump can can win. Well done
