Julia Goerges

Julia, I notice that your surname
is similar to the word gorgeous
and whilst I wouldn't go so far as to say
that word described you
you are certainly very pretty.

Unfortunately, everybody else noticed this too
and now 'gorgeous' is what people call you.

I however shall not.

Julia, I also notice that your surname
is similar to the word gurgles
and whilst I wouldn't go so far as to say
that word described you
in any way that I can think of
it is what I shall call you.


Gurgles, I enjoyed watching you play tennis.
I was hoping that you would win.
I'm sorry that you lost.

You wear glasses on your head
when you run round the track
You're often somewhere near the front
and rarely at the back

You went for track athletics
as your chosen sport
It makes more sense than basketball
because you're very short

I wish you all the very best
as you prepare for London
It really must be nicer now
you've got that Lottery funding

The Olympics is about success
I hope you get your slice
Because you seem hard-working
and really very nice
