    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
