And the Habs but won it in the end
As they needed all the goals they scored
Which to yes recap
In case you were not here
For the previous day

So in the 1st
They scored the only goal
Thanks to a good young forward
One Artturi Lehkonen
Who got his 4th
Which came but late
At 19:31
Which is always good
When it's for you
And not against

Now the good young star
Connor McDavid himself
Tied the game up
Early in the 2nd
In a boo sigh boo
But 11 seconds later
At 3:20 quick
The good Josh Anderson
Got them the lead
With his 16th of the season

So they followed up
A winning period
With one but tied
But thanks to the 1st
They were up through 40

Now they looked to be home and cooled
As they scored a pair
With a goodly goal
By Timely Tyler Toffoli
The forward par excellence
With his 22nd
At a happy 8:10
And the needed game winner
With his second of the night
As the good Josh Anderson
Scored at 15:03
For his 17th
To give them a three goal lead
Which they'd sadly need
In part because
Of a dang double minor
As the Oilers made it close
At 17:48 and 18:49

But they ran out of time
And the Habs took two good points
To go ahead of the Flames
By 8 whole points
Which is sadly vital
Because they have to play them yes
For three straight games
And it's not the Habs
Who've won the most this season
Though it was the Habs who won
When last they met
So there's reason for hope
And if they can keep the play
They had this game
Against the other Alberta team
They stand a chance
Of winning two of three

But the games will come in time
And we can onl;y hope
Those of us
Who root for them
That they'll do that at least
And ideally in a row
So they can play their way
To up by 12
And having 53 points
To the Flames at 41
With the best that they can do then
A mere 65
Which would leave Habs in need
Of 66
And another 7 wins
As let's but hope
There's no more games
That run past 60 minutes

Though the odds of the Flames
Going on a tear
Of nine in a row
While the Habs fail to win
Yes 9 of their own
Seems remote to me
But only time will tell
What's even gonna be

As for the here and now
I'm feeling hopeful
Because they're 8 points up
And the Flames have struggled too
But it it'll be decided on the ice
As of course it always is

And through it all
I'll be writing
As hard as I can
Even if I cannot write
As hard as I want
I'll still be writing well
Because that's what I do

But for now
I had it over to Tau
As I am good With where I stand
And might even toddle off to bed
To rest my writer's head
For another good day
Of writing eh
Even if it's writing
For the questions yes
Which is fun to do

And frankly
The worst that will happen
Is come the month's end
I'll have 85,000 words
But written in verse
Which leaves me with a harvest
Of 367 fields
And little more
Which is pretty good
And sets me up
For an easy shot at glory
If I keep on pressing
As hard as I've been

I had such a good start to the day
But somewhere on the way
To two good fields
I set sweet Baevalon down
And enjoyed the sun
But shining down

Now there's still enough time
For even three good fields
As it's only late in the 3rd
And not the 4th
But I have some writing to do
Though that's nothing new
And with the help
Of this stupid third
I'll cut the need
To a level of bleed
That I can handle
In the hours to come

And in other news
That you didn't know
You needed eh
Busby's now been drawn again
On his own
For darker adventures

Though who would want
To read the adventures
Of a hero's hat
That houses the soul
Of a daring scientist adventurer
Who goes from place to place
Be it city to city
City to wilds
Even world to world
For there's no need for limits
To the scope of his doings

Oh those letters
Calling it a night
When there was still so much time
But left in the night
Which I didn't use to write
But needed to draw
Yes so many drawings
Relative to what I drew
In the earlier part
Of this good day
So I have to say
I've gotta be swinging
Sweet Baevalon
As hard as I can
So I can be
A Happy Writer Man
With three fields felled
Instead of just a little short
As far as the race to a million
On the power of poetry goes
Because though I have the words
That I wrote
For my own good Opportunity: I Know That
Which doesn't include
the writing of the questions themselves
As that doesn't quite fit in
With the goodly parameters
That I have set

So I've got some rows to fell
Instead of fields
Which is good indeed
As I need to bleed
A lot of words
If I want to win the day
On verse alone
As I counted myself short
Of doing that
By three good rows
Which as I just wrote
Is a lot to fell
At the best of times
And I'm not sure
That this is that

And if I should
Yes fall but short
Of that noble aim
I won't be blaming Baseball
Because that wouldn't be right
As it falls on me
To get more drawing
Done before now
Which I couldn't do

Yeah I'm watching the game
On youtube yes
Which is a bit of a laugher
For the Astros eh
As they're about to close but out
The heavenly Angels
Who are enjoying their season so far
Ave for tonight
When they got whomped
8 to 2
And were never in the game
In any serious way

And though it was
AL Ball
When growing up
In the goodly area
Of an NL team
The late lamented Expos
This was still fun
Due in part
To live commentation
By MLB and 'tubers eh
Some of whom
I recognize their names
Who have an avowed love
For the grand olde game

Tick tick tick
Time's about to tick down
To the end of the day
And I think I have to say
That I feel just a little short
Of my goodly aim
Of three good fields
Of naught but verse
Which is worth a curse
Though only a light one at that
