There's a fanatical (footie) fan
Who loves the beautiful game
Who eats, sleeps and lives (football)
(Simon) is his name

I send this card to say
May you always play a blinder
(And have a 'back of the net' sort of day)
(And have a 'man of the match' sort of day

Birthday poetry on the subject of boxing

Congratulations (Jack Dempsey)
On reaching the big (Five)-O
In the bout of life, you've had some knocks
And boy! does it show

We're kidding (Jack), honestly
Cos this is our hunch
You may be getting decrepit
But you can still pack a punch

We're now on the back foot
No more insults you'll hear us say
(Jack) enjoy your Fiftieth
Have a 'knock-out' sort of a day

Birthday poetry on the subject of horse racing

Congratulation (Uncle Jack)
You've reached the big (Six)-O

There's many furlongs to go

We bet your birthday’s happy
Odds on, we would say
(Uncle Jack) you're a Champion
Have a 'winner' of a day

Birthday poetry on the subject of golf

Congratulations (Jimmy)
You’ve reached the big (Five)-O
That’s the same number of shots you take
With half a round to go
(With (12) holes still to go)

We’ve insulted your golfing skills
Which we didn’t mean to say
(Jimmy) may all your puts be ‘gimme’s’
Have a ‘course record’ sort of day

Have a 'Hole in One' Birthday
We’ve now said enough
Hit them straight down the middle
And chip in from the rough

Birthday poetry on the subject of angling / fishing

Congratulations (Jimmy)
You’ve reached the big Five-O
It’s time to go on cruise control
And start moving slow

You should sit by the (river bank) (fishing lake) (pier)
Waiting for a bite
Chilling out, relaxing
All movement, light and slight

At your age, it’s expected
But hold it, half a mo
You started sitting, doing nothing
More than (20) years ago

Have a great birthday
And remember
Good things come to those who bait.

Birthday poetry on the subject of cricket

Congratulations Jimmy
You’ve reached a half century score
You’re still in fine batting form
So there’s lots more runs in store

Keep driving to the boundary
Avoid play stoppage thro’ downpours
Protect your bails and make quite sure
The googly misses yours

You’re in the middle of your innings
There’s many balls to clout
Before the last over’s over
And you’re no longer in, but out

Meantime, have a great 50th birthday
And keep walking out when you’re in
And walking in when you’re out

Birthday poetry on the subject of keeping pigeons

Happy Birthday (Len)
(My James Dean biker type)
My Sporty/Athletic type
(You're becoming over ripe)
Perhaps as you're getting older
It's time for slippers and pipe

Your get up and go has got up and went
Your energy level's sapping
But you can hang on to your pigeons
Cos they do all the flapping

Happy Birthday (Susie)
I've pondered what to buy

Get yourself a pretty frock
Have some drinks and brace yourself
For a (30th) birthday shock

T'wixt your last trip and the next
