It's nice to read a good silly poem once in a while. And I love how you even made your notes poetic. I at both golf and pool; but I've never tried to combine the two. Worth a try!

The poem's title drew my attention.While starting to read, I thought about a story where a crow is trying to show its singing prowess to cuckoos.Here the billiard player shows his brilliance.Great imaginative write, loved reading.

If something happens or is done without rhyme or reason, there seems to be no logical reason for it to happen or be done. He picked people on a whim, without rhyme or reason.'

I give *****, BUT in the last stanza, do me a favor and rub (out) 'hub'; I see no rhyme or reason to using hub here. Does anyone disagree? ? ? bri : )

(continued......about Santa Clause) Well I just read the old Christmas poem and Santa neither 'wink'ed nor 'smile'd, but he DID 'nod'. AND Santa was little, not BIG like my childhood memories of Santa aka St. Nick.

stanza 2: '..with a wink and a smile..' That reminds me of what S. Claus said in the poem 'Twas The Night Before Christmas...before he exited via the chimney. ;)

I'm enjoying it so far, but I'd tweak the first stanza's last line or two. In your poet's notes you seem to try emphasize the differences between B and G, yet seem to draw parallels/similarities in my mind.
