Crimson and Cream

     Homework for Poetry Writing while the Bedlam football game was playing.

Long live the crimson and cream;
our rows of trophies gleam
and when someone calls out “Boomer!”
It’s a given the reply is “Sooner!”
It’s what makes us Oklahoma’s team.

Did you see the latest Mike Gundy meme?
Maybe he’s getting run over by the Schooner,
or that could have been just a dream.
Long live the crimson and cream

Memorial Stadium will teem
with fans, all with crimson bloodstream
with the sky-light in lunar
while some country crooner
sings the Anthem, our land reigns supreme.

Long live the crimson and cream.
