My clever and talented pickleball friend Keith, from Gig Harbor, WA, just whipped up this fun poem for you to enjoy:
On the first day of Christmas, my true love gave to me:
A pickleball in a pear tree.On the second day of Christmas, my true love gave to me:
Two overheads—and a pickleball in a pear tree.On the third day of Christmas, my true love gave to me:
Three bench hens, two overheads—and a pickleball in a pear tree.On the fourth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me:
Four calling nerds, three bench hens, two overheads—and a pickleball in a pear tree.On the fifth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me:
Five golden blings!
Four calling nerds, three bench hens, two overheads—and a pickleball in a pear tree.On the sixth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me:
Six geezers playing—five golden blings—
Four calling nerds, three bench hens, two overheads—and a pickleball in a pear tree.On the seventh day of Christmas, my true love gave to me:

Thanks so much for The Pickleball Christmas Decorations and the Pickleball Poem. Our church has Pickleball every Monday night and i put the poem on our church site and also on our FBCWooPoetry FB site. Usually we try to give credit to the poet, but I do not have his name (only Keith). Could you please send a gracious “thank you” to Keith. I hope that it was OK that I shared this on our site. Pickleball has been a wonder time of playing, competition, spirit, and community. Keith has picked of the spirit very well.
Hello James, thanks so much for your comment and I love that you are sharing the poem – this will make Keith very happy 🙂 Hugs!
Merry Christmas to Jen and everyone and a special shout-out to Alex Hamner for her trenchant editorial suggestions.
