I am a granny tennis racquet
My kids have pensioned me
Pushed out by the new breed
I’m on the shelf now, see?
My picture here is on your screen
I have a wooden frame
My strings are real live gut ones
Before these plastics came
The new breed now have cool frames
To tennis crowds enthrall
With strings that snap like lightening –
I’m sorry for the ball

Dear Uncle Don
My wife has a racket just like this
…do you think she lied about her age?
😂
